Arundel Castle’s gardens open with new additions

The grounds reopen on April 1 and updates to the garden include an extension to the stumpery, now stretching into the living willow arch area and featuring a garden bursting with woodland plants.

Four new Gothic archways, planted with Adélade D’Orléans roses, have also been included to lead visitors through to the rose garden.

There is also a new poppy display at the gardens, which has been planted to commemorate 100 years since the start of the First World War.

A season ticket is now available for 2014, offering access to the grounds and gardens for £30 a year.
