Created in the early 18th century out of the ruins of a substantial 12th century earthwork castle, The Moot Garden in Downton is now owned by a charity, open to the public, and mostly managed by volunteers.
There is no record of the state of the ruins when the garden was made and how it developed is an intriguing puzzle. It is registered both as an Ancient Monument and a Historic Garden.
It has many interesting features and is a delightful place to visit. Apart from special events it is open to the public without charge at all times.
