callington mill |
if you are at a loose end this weekend
try a garden visit
we have just gotten back from oatlands
in the midlands of tasmania
the new parterre |
the village is magnificent
a construct of aged sandstone
and most of the village houses now sport wonderful cottage gardens
and they are growing on the hardest ground in very dry conditions
a french parterre garden is being constructed behind the callington mill
and they have wonderful espaliered apple trees
surrounded by wonderful dry stone walls constructed by local women
espaliered apples |
so take a drive
enjoy poking about what must be tasmanians most beautiful village
a bit of history |
