Framed Prints From Royal Cornwall Museum
Framed Print of The chain gardens at Carclew House, Mylor, Cornwall. 15th March 1912
Originally owned by the Bonython family, the house and estate were purchased by William Lemon (1696-1760) in 1749 who employed the architect Thomas Edwards to enlarge and modernise the house in the style of Palladios Villa Ragona. The house was further extended by Sir William Lemon (1748-1824) in the early 19th century by architect William Wood. It was destroyed by fire in 1934 but one wing was restored in the late 1930s to house refugees. There are a few ruins preserved. Extensive gardens and park surrounded the house and the gardens were mostly preserved after destruction of the house. They were famous for rhododendrons and a rhododendron arboretum was planted by Sir Charles Lemon (1784-1868) in 1850. This view shows a formal garden with beds resembling chain links.
