The death of a great gardener, Christopher Lloyd
 
From the BBC's web site:
"Writer and gardener dies aged 84
Writer and gardener Christopher Lloyd has died just months after launching a
£3m campaign to preserve the house and garden to which he devoted his life.
Mr Lloyd, who was 84, died in hospital in Hastings, East Sussex on Friday.
He had a stroke after surgery on his leg, his great nephew Chris Lloyd said.
Great Dixter, at Northiam, near Rye has been in the Lloyd family since 1910
and Mr Lloyd wanted to ensure it survived. He set up the Great Dixter
Charitable Trust to take over when he died. "
