The Lost Gardens of Heligan
Slideshow of photographs taken at the Lost Gardens of Helicon, near Mevagissey, Cornwall, England.
Photos by Gareth Kitchener. Music by Ray Paul Lloyd.
The Lost Gardens of Heligan are one of Cornwall’s most enchanting estates, once forgotten and overgrown before being rediscovered in the 1990s. Today they are a living time capsule of Victorian horticulture, with walled gardens, wild woodlands, subtropical plantings, and the famous Mud Maid and Giant’s Head sculptures. Both a restoration project and a thriving landscape, Heligan captures the romance of history reclaimed by nature and brought back to life.
