MIDNIGHT APOTHECARY AT THE BRUNEL MUSEUM, RAILWAY AVENUE, SE16

THIS tiny botanical oasis crowning Brunel’s groundbreaking (literally) Thames Tunnel shaft in Rotherhithe is one of London’s most unusual gardens. Planted in 2012, it now organises regular cocktail nights with drinks made from things grown in the garden: pineapple sage, rhubarb, rosemary, Szechuan peppercorns, fennel and angelica seeds. From April to October, these run every Friday and Saturday night, but, this month, you can cosy up around a fire pit, complete with s’mores kits and organic mulled cider and smoked sagesyrup hot toddies (Saturday, February 12). Entry includes a guided descent into Brunel’s Grand Entrance Hall. From £8 (https:// midnightapothecary.designmynight.com) Natasha Goodfellow is author of ‘A London Floral’ and her next guide, ‘A Cotswold Garden Companion’, will be published next month (www.finchpublishing.co.uk)
