WalledGarden_0174a.JPG - Walled Garden at Applecross House. Work on Applecross House was begun in 1675 and it is likely that the garden was created at the same time. For many years the garden was the exclusive domain of the Mackenzie Laird, his family and team of six gardeners who toiled to supply the 'Big House' with fruit, flowers and vegetables. There is a nice cafe in the garden now.
