Cheshire Cycleway
Arley Hall and Gardens
by Alec and Val Scaresbrook
Home of the Egerton-Warburton family for over 500 years, with gardens open to the public and refreshments available. The double herbaceous border was the first in the country and there's also an interesting avenue of cylindrical trees. Additionally there's a craft centre here.
The rhyming squire, Rowland Egerton-Warburton, wrote songs and verses for the amusement of fellow members of Tarporley Hunt Club. These were collected and published in 1846 as Hunting Songs. His rhyming signposts are to be seen in the grounds of the Hall. See the map below
