For anyone interested in a briefish glimpse of Veddw House Garden, there
were about 5 minutes of it on today's (9 January) edition of Escape to
the Country on BBC1. Should be on iPlayer tomorrow if not later today.


What a strange ******* spelling! Where is it? right on the Welsh/English
border?


Very close. A bit north west of Chepstow. Over the years it's been
spelt differently (Fedw, Vedw, Veddw et al) and Anne Wareham's erected
a bench which is decorated with the various spellings and their
dates. Currently known as Veddw House Garden.
