March has seen a transformation at the walled garden with ‘Castle Corner’ opened to the sunshine for the first time in over a decade. Scrub kept for nesting birds and bramble pickers too as paths and a clearing were made through the once dense scrub. Many thanks to the brilliant team from Lothians Conservation Volunteers
