National Trust - Lytes Cary, Somerset (67) - Verbena and Bee

            National Trust Properties
Lytes Cary, Nr. Charlton Mackrell, Somerton, Somerset
The earliest building on the site is the chapel, built circa 1343.  The Great Hall was built in the mid 15th century and then in the 16th century The Oriel Room was added.  The house then went through a period of neglect and it wasn’t until 1907 when the house was restored adding fine oak furniture, tapestries and fabrics.  Also a fine collection of paintings was added.  The house is now Grade I listed, the person responsible for these renovations was Sir Walter Jenner who lived at Lytes Cary until his death in 1948 when it passed on to the National Trust.
The gardens are Grade II listed but very little of that 17th century garden exists but the Jenner’s designed the garden in ‘Art and Crafts fashion’.  A series of rooms separated by hedge either box or yew with ponds or walks between or in the rooms.
