Prince of Wales to open garden at Arundel Castle

The Prince of Wales will open the new Earl's Garden at Arundel Castle in West Sussex on May 14.

The new garden, based on a 17th-century classical design by Inigo Jones, is in memory of the Collector Earl, Thomas 14th Earl of Arundel, who was the first great English collector of art.

The original drawings were updated for a timeless look by well-known garden designers, Julian and Isabel Bannerman, who also designed the famous stumpery at The Prince of Wales's home, Highgrove.
