Heritage Gardens on the English Riviera

Commissioned by Torbay Culture, this film celebrates some of the bay's most historic gardens. Ali Marshall, Head Gardener at Torre Abbey, takes viewers on a tour of her favourite places, and shares the reflections of Albert E Germain, the Edwardian fruit tree specialist who made Torbay his home.
