Cressing Temple Barns and Gardens

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Historic site of the Knights Templar dates back to the 12th century, being the first tract of land granted to them in Britain. Remarkable to day is the surviving pair of 13th century barns, the finest in Europe. There is also a finme Tudor walled garden, and several other buildings of historical note.
Garden: Walled Tudor garden complements the 13th century barns and Elizabethan granary. Beauty and practicality combine in the traditional gardens, with areas set aside for growing plants used medicianlly, for the pot, for strewing, and for nosegays. There is also a knot garden, an arbour, an orchard and nuttery.
