“A celebration of the Works of Roald Dahl” – to celebrate the work of the Welsh born author and the centenary of his birth. A garden divided into a number of his most celebrated books. The garden ranges from the exuberance of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to the more sombre naturalistic themes represented in Fantastic Mr Fox. Garden created by NPTC College staff and students."
