Rodmarton Manor
One of the last country houses constructed (1909–29) using traditional methods and materials is furnished with specially commissioned pieces in the Arts and Crafts style. Ernest Barnsley, a follower of William Morris, worked on the house and grounds, which are 5 miles northeast of Tetbury. Eight acres of gardens—wild, winter, sunken, and white—are divided into "rooms" bounded by hedges of holly, beech, and yew. Hours are limited spring through fall; the gardens are also open on certain dates in February, when people come to see the snowdrops.
