The manor house is grade II* listed, while its iconic garden, which is famed for its snowdrops and cottage garden<\/a> style, is listed as Grade I. <\/p> The future of the garden, which is usually open to the public for nine months over the year, will be of concern to galanthophiles and garden enthusiasts. Grade I status is the highest on the register and means any changes to the garden will need to be put through a consultation and planning process involving Historic England and The Gardens Trust. But it does not necessarily mean the garden and nursery will remain open to the public. <\/p> In her piece for Gardens Illustrated<\/em> on the garden, Isabel Bannerman said: Margery’s \u2018look\u2019 is very familiar and currently very unfashionable; crazy paving with alpine planting; silver and variegated shrubs along with signature blue conifers; loose herbaceous\u00a0perennials<\/a>. An absolute joy in later winter are the naturalised\u00a0bulbs<\/a>.’ <\/p> Margery Fish created the garden after moving to Somerset<\/a> in 1937 with her husband Walter Fish, who was the editor of the Daily Mail. The creation of the garden was documented in her book We Made a Garden<\/em>, which became an iconic gardening book and one of many that Fish would go on to write. <\/p>\n The Manor is not being sold as a business, although fixtures and fittings in the Malthouse and the nursery could be available by separate negotiation. <\/p> The gardens include a collection of stunning snowdrops, as well as hellebores, euphorbia, algerian irises, tulips, violets and much more.
