For the past year, restoration of the Samuel Wyatt Vinery on the Holkham Estate has been underway. Near the Walled Garden, the glasshouse is getting closer to completion each day. Upon completion, the Vinery will be used for a collection of vines and tender plants that require regulation of temperatures.

Don’t ever think that archives are just places where dusty old documents are kept. They are full of moments in history that are waiting to be explored. It is vital to remember that for a document to have been kept for decades, sometimes centuries it must have been important at one point. The archives at Holkham are full of just such documents some of which are well-known, and others are just waiting to be explored. Holkham Archivist, Lucy Purvis, gives our Head Gardener, Mark Morell, an exclusive viewing of a book close to his heart.
