"A charity-run garden maintained for public enjoyment. Our charitable trust was established in 1987 thanks to the generosity of Edward and Jan Strutt.The history of the garden reaches back to the 18th century when the building of Galloway House began. The house, garden and policies are included in Historic Scotland's Inventory.The most significant periods of horticultural development were around the turn of the 20th century and in particular the 1920s when Neil McEacharn and the precocious talent of Harold Comber were directed at developing the plant collection in the gardens.Neil McEacharn went on to establish the gardens at Villa Tarranto in Italy and Harold Comber continued to carve out a distinguished horticultural career."
