Fulham Palace Gardens have been bringing joy to garden-lovers in London for three centuries Mark Griffiths pays tribute to the extraordinary figure who first created this idyllic space This spring sees the opening of an important series of plantings at Fulham Palace They restore to its gardens many of the species introduced there in the late 17th and early 18th centuries by Henry Compton one of British horticulture’s most remarkable figures As Bishop of London and an ardent Anglican Compton joined six secular grandees in June 1688 in sending a letter to William of Orange at The Hague pledged to support the Protestant Prince if he invaded England and deposed the Catholic James II in favour of the King’s daughter Mary (William’s wife and co-religionist) From this letter flowed the Glorious Revolution the crowning of William and Mary the following April and the Bill of Rights An old friend and servant of the new joint monarchs he’d overseen Mary’s Protestant education presided at her wedding to William and kept the pair abreast of events in England His tutelage of Mary’s younger sister was even closer the Bishop had reverted to his earlier career as a soldier spirited her away from her father’s clutches in London and escorted her to safety and her husband in Oxford Plants were as dear to Compton as Protestantism His appointment as Bishop of London in 1675 entailed moving to Fulham Palace he proceeded (as Richard Pulteney wrote in 1790) ‘to collect a greater variety of Greenhouse rarities and to plant a greater variety of hardy Exotic Trees and Shrubs than had been seen in any garden before in England’ At his side was his gardener George London whose talents Compton nurtured with characteristic generosity London would go on to set up the Brompton Park Nursery and become the English elite’s garden designer of choice often attended the Botany Club that met at the Temple Coffee House in Devereux Court they received and examined scores of new plants from overseas Many species that would be communicated to the Royal Society or become ornaments of English horticulture were first revealed at the Temple Coffee House Much of this treasure was amassed thanks to one of Compton’s duties as Bishop—the recruitment and management of Anglican clergy in the colonies he chose men who had (or could be persuaded to acquire) an interest in plant-collecting The most prodigious of these chaplain field agents was John Banister an outstanding natural historian in his own right where he ministered and botanised until his death he had sent back countless specimens and seeds of North American species Liquidambar styraciflua and Magnolia virginiana (England’s first magnolia and still one of the loveliest) all of which flourished in the grounds of Fulham Palace His Grace’s glasshouses were full of the fruits of his political intrigues William of Orange was a plant lover and his right-hand man William Bentinck even more so Compton received the pick of the prizes brought home by Dutch explorers Leonotis leonurus and several Pelargonium species collected by Paul Hermann in South Africa Politics can also take some credit for the scale and intensity of Compton’s gardening he threw himself into it when suspended from episcopal duties for opposing James II and again when William and Mary failed to make him Archbishop of Canterbury but his way of life was by then settled: a mixture of passionate horticulture diligent pastoral care and impressive charitable works three pursuits to which he devoted all of his sizeable income and more an obituarist marvelled at Compton’s kindness to anyone interested in plants: ‘He showed great Civilities to all those who were anything curious in this sort of Study.’ He would have embraced the gardeners at Fulham Palace and their new living monument to his glorious Mark Griffiths is editor of the New Royal Horticultural Society Dictionary of Gardening Mark Griffiths describes how a dinner-party question led to the

Big attraction: Family friendly with plenty of outdoor games in the gardens, including an outdoor gym and a children's maze.  What does it cost to run? Ground rent, annual rent and parking costs can add thousands of pounds a year to the cost of owning a home at Fulham Riverside.  But that is what has been available at Fulham Riverside until renowned housebuilder Barratt stepped in. As it's Fulham Riverside name suggests, it is on the banks of the River Thames.  Despite being a big site with more than 450 homes, it is tricky to find if you're on foot as it is tucked away from the main shopping area of Fulham (being at the Wandsworth Bridge end of Townmead Road for those with a detailed knowledge of this corner of the capital).  But this is part of its beauty as it is in a relatively quiet spot for London. It depends on the size of the property, but expect to pay anything from £693,500 for a one-bedroom flat to £5million for one of the five or six-bedroom terrace townhouses.  The landscaped gardens are full of outdoor games, including table tennis tables, a children's maze, and an outdoor gym.  There is also a badminton court overlooking the Thames, which undoubtedly now contains a few more shuttlecocks from over-zealous players. For those who like to exercise their brains as well as their bodies, there are three sit-down outdoor tables with chess boards inscribed on the top.  The gardens have been carefully designed by Fabrik landscape architects and boast some fun water features, including stepping stones for children to play on and a large waterfall. As you turn up to the site, you're presented with the area's largest Sainsbury's superstore covering 100,000 sq ft. It runs both along the façade of the development and below it.  As I was told during a tour of the site, 'you're now standing above an aisle of baked beans'. However, this does also mean residents literally have grocery shopping on their doorstep. As Barratt's London sales director Gavin Stewart points out, the Sainsbury's superstore offers residents a 'convenient experience'.  The other potential downside is the 15 minute walk to Fulham Broadway and Parsons Green underground stations, which are on the district line. However, the area is close to Imperial Wharf station for overground services across London and is well connected on the bus routes. There are different sized homes at Fulham Riverside and so the buyers so far have been varied, including some from overseas. However, the main group are professional young families looking for more space, according to Barratt.  There are a number of schools nearby, including Lady Margaret School, a Church of England school for girls aged between 11 and 18, and Hurlingham School, an independent co-educational preparatory school for those aged four to 11. The Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle, which has the highest average mark for the Baccalauréat Général outside France, is around two miles away from Fulham Riverside. The immediate surrounding area is residential - with traditional terraced houses - and undoubtedly prosperous. Many of the 160 residents who have so far bought homes at Fulham Riverside are young professionals or families. Fulham is on the north bank of the Thames, between Chelsea and Putney. It is home to some of London's finest schools and parks, including Hurlingham Park. And nearby is the King's Road. Fulham Palace is just a short way down the river. Admission to the Palace and its grounds is free of charge. Residents are within walking distance of a number of restaurants including The Harwood Arms and Joe's Brasserie, part of the Brinkley's Restaurant Group. Chelsea and Fulham are both home to an abundance of top restaurants including Eight Over Eight, Will Ricker's stylish pan-Asian eatery, and the famous Bluebird café on The King's Road. The gardens are a big selling point for families. They have been designed specifically with children in mind, with the playful stepping steps in shallow water. Fulham Riverside is a 10 minute walk from Imperial Wharf station which links to Waterloo in 19 minutes, Paddington in 21 minutes and Gatwick in 47 minutes. Buses are also available. Buyers will need to take into account the costs of ground rent and monthly service charges.  Annual ground rent starts from £375 for a one bedroom property, with the amount for a six bedroom townhouse has yet to be disclosed.  Annual management fees cost more than £5,000 for a three bedroom property.  There are also additional charges for basement car parking, costing an extra £600 a year. The kitchen has integrated appliances, the bathroom has tiling to walls and floor, and the main bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. Residents also have access to all of the onsite facilities, including parking, a gym, and an onsite café.  Major terror attack 'was just HOURS away' before it was foiled by the special forces and police:...
