Ingatestone Hall

Location: Ingatestone Hall, Ingatestone, Essex, UK
Previously ran: 2003-5

The house has passed through the hands of fifteen generations of the Petre family who continue to own and occupy it today.

The Hall stands in open countryside, one mile from the village of Ingatestone and substantially retains its original Tudor form and appearance with its mullioned windows, high chimneys, crow-step gables and oak-panelled rooms and is surrounded by ten acres of enclosed gardens comprising extensive lawns, walled garden and stew pond.

It was within these beautiful gardens ZimSculpt exhibited for 3 consecutive years with Lord Petre and his family, who welcomed us whole-heartedly.  Most of the sculptures were located around the house, gardens and lawns to the rear.

There is much to love about the pairing of ZimSculpt and VanDusen. The combination of art and the garden enhances the experience of both. The larger Zimbabwean sculptures seem ideally suited to outdoor display: they are perfectly at home rising from a bed of perennials or standing tall beside Cypress Pond, and they act as dramatic accents to the Garden’s picturesque landscapes.
