The Sculpture Garden at Kingsbrae
Kingsbrae Garden is home to a growing collection of sculptures, exhibited around the national award-winning property, and now in the brand-new Sculpture Garden. The marriage of art and gardens is a natural one. Around the 27-acre Kingsbrae site are metal and glass creations by Don Pell, several works on loan from the Beaverbrook collection, and a variety of animal figures. Despite these, a Dutch windmill and collections of over 50,000 plants, there is always room for more.
