Lincoln's Inn is one of the four Inns of Court, and has recently undergone a major development. This has led to a ring of new horticultural areas being created around the Great Hall and Library.
The beautiful, secluded garden of the Stationers' Company returns after three years of the Hall's refurbishment. This hidden treasure in the heart of the City of London is an inspirational example of a shaded garden.
