Jolly Green Giant Bean
A fabulous wrought iron gate in the shape of a giant runner bean leads into the Treasurers House herb garden. This walled garden has probably been continuously cultivated since Roman times. All the gardening done today is organic, and the latest addition to the garden is a hive of bees. A brave move as the garden is in the centre of York, a stones throw from the Minster, the Bar Walls, and lots of visitors to the city.

It's a wonderful gate!
ReplyDeleteThat's an enticing entryway. A wonderful photo, too. I love all the rooftop shapes--the spires, chimneys and whatnot.
