The Lost Gardens of Heligan.

Following the hurricane of 1990, after decades of neglect, the Heligan Gardens are being restored to there former glory. The restoration was inspired by the discovery of a motto written on a wall, "Don't come here to sleep or slumber", signed in 1914 by those workers about to leave to serve in the Great War.
