Doddington Place Gardens, Victorian estate gardens in Faversham, Kent, United Kingdom.
The ten-acre gardens feature an Edwardian rock garden with pools, formal sunken areas, and herbaceous borders surrounded by clipped yew hedges.
Built in 1870 for Sir John Croft, the estate gardens were designed by Markham Nesfield and later enhanced with rock gardens by the Jeffreys family.
The gardens served as a filming location for the movie Waterland, starring Jeremy Irons, and hosted performances of operas including The Marriage of Figaro.
Doddington Place Gardens will reopen to visitors in 2025, with a special opening for the National Garden Snowdrop Festival on February 16th.
The garden features yew trees planted before World War I that have grown into formations resembling large clouds above the extensive lawns.
