The garden was Barbara Hepworth's own creation and was gradually filled with her sculptures. Gravel paths lead you in between exotic plantings to her workshop. There is a raised pond and there are glimpses of the sea. Barbara Hepworth was one of the Nation's greatest craftsman and more of her works can be seen at the Tate Gallery in St Ives.
