Pargues Priory Garden

Pargues church is extremely curious with its layout in the form of a Greek cross surmounted by domes. Nestling between the collegiate church and the former priory house, the priory garden is just perfect.

The owner’s green fingers and sense of space have made it into something wonderful.

Three terraces mark out plots of clipped box bordered with “Irene of Denmark” white roses.

In the background perennials and old roses contrast with the glass of an arbour covering the boundary wall and leaving a view of the jumble of roofs on the horizon.
