The
lost garden in the grounds of the Chateau La Chaire Hotel at Rozel
was designed by a Victorian Horticulturalist and included tropical
plants from around the world.

was during a walk around what initially looked like a neglected

Importance
The
garden is said to be potentially one of the most important in Europe,
and the discovery has caused great excitement - could this could
revive the Jersey tourist industry? We have put together a roundup
of stories and information for you.
Your opinions
The
estimated cost of putting the garden back to its original state
is around £3 million, and we want to know your opinions on
this. Should the money come from the tourism budget? Should the
tax payers cover the cost of something so important? Or should we
just leave it as it is?
Also,
the site at La Chaire is said to have been pillaged by German troops
during the Second World War, and we want to know if you can shed
any light on this.
