| Begun in 1595 by Sir Thomas Tresham to symbolise his Catholic faith, Lyveden remains virtually unaltered since work stopped at his death in 1605. The building has fascinating architectural detail, and the water garden, with its terraces and spiral mounts, remains of one of the oldest surviving layouts in Britain. | | | | As featured in BBC series Hidden Gardens.
