The Vicarage Botanical Gardens are on a site covering 7½ acres, adjacent to the Shell Carrington works on the edge of Carrington Moss. This is the sign on the path leading into the botanical gardens from the garden centre. The following is adapted from http://www.vicaragebotanicalgardens.co.uk/GARDENS/history.asp - Vicarage Botanical Gardens History During the eighteenth century, the Countess of Stamford gave a small cottage with five acres of land to the church for the building of a Chapel of Ease (Image]) and vicarage. After many years the Vicarage became redundant and fell into disrepair. The House Church, set up by a group of Christians from varied backgrounds, growing their own food and keeping animals, bought the Old Vicarage in the mid 1980s, moving north from their original location in Hampshire. A charity was set up and the grounds were landscaped to demonstrate that with God’s help Christians living in harmony and obedience to the Gospel of Christ could, through love, produce a veritable oasis amidst the industrial wasteland on all sides.
