a Topiary garden and a newly planted Jubilee Orchard, linked by a footbridge over the River Pinn to Long Meadow, an ancient water meadow. Eastcote House Gardens has stood at the heart of Eastcote for more than 500 years. The Gardens are now owned by the London Borough of Hillingdon, but maintained by volunteers:  the Friends of Eastcote House Gardens. We always welcome new volunteers who enjoy leisure gardening. An award has been made by the Heritage Lottery Fund of £1.3 million to restore the remaining Tudor Buildings - Stables, Dovecote and Walled Garden.
