Garden of the week
Restoration work has transformed the building that stands at the centre of Burns Monument and Gardens in the South Ayrshire village of Alloway.
This garden on a sloping, south-facing site overlooking the Brig O’doon is filled with fragrant roses and perennial flowers and it is linked by paths to both the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum and to the cottage where the national bard was born.
