Our Physick Garden plantings are based on John Wesley’s Primitive Physick, a compendium of natural remedies for ailments of all kinds. The Physic Garden is planted in groupings of different types of remedies.  It is laid out like a semi-formal Georgian garden and the majority of the plants John Wesley used in his herbal remedies for a vast range of ailments are growing there. The cures he identified are labelled with the plants. A fountain provides running water. Water, diet and exercise were all issues that concerned John Wesley as he tried to help poor people to improve their lives and health.
