This garden is designed in collaboration with Derby College and Derbyshire Historic Buildings Trust , highlighting the Bonsall Field Barn Restoration Project . Features a restored field barn within a setting inspired by the Peak District village of Bonsall . This includes dry stone walling , typical of the area , a limestone path representing the Limestone Way , planted with predominantly UK natives around a dew pond , and a representation of a covered , disused lead mine shaft featuring ‘ T ’ Owd Man of Bonsall ’. Planting is in keeping with the area , including a wildflower meadow and ornamentals thriving on limestone sites .
