The Ingersley Hall (Savio House) walled garden peach case
The Tatton Peach Case
The timber detailing in our Ingersley Hall walled garden structure appears finer than at Tatton. Simon Tetlow Head Gardener at Tatton thought from the above photographs that ours might be quite old, possibly moved to or remade in its present position. Based on the brickwork that ours leans against I had thought late Victorian, but it may have leant against something else previously. Simon thought the lack of a lower opening vent in ours might suggest that in its present form our structure was not set up for growing peaches. Thanks to Simon for letting us in at Tatton today, as the peach case there is not generally open to the public.
