This 1/4 acre garden is planted in a style familiar to John Goodyer, the distinguished 17th century botanist, who lived in Petersfield. It was given to Hampshire Gardens Trust in 1988 by Major John Bowen. Today it is a popular place for workers to come and eat their lunch, being only a few yards from the town centre.
