Steeple Ashton Open Gardens

Held every two years, the Steeple Ashton Open Gardens event is a cherished tradition where local residents throw open the gates to their stunning, meticulously tended private spaces for the public to enjoy. For a modest admission fee, visitors are invited to wander, explore, and marvel at the hidden sanctuaries tucked away throughout the village.

In 2026  I had the absolute privilege of photographing every single participating garden, capturing the incredible dedication and artistry of our green-thumbed neighbours. Meeting the owners and translating the vibrant colors, tranquil ponds, and blooming landscapes into a comprehensive photo collection made it an unforgettable event for the entire community.
