context_page_description: Loseley Park is a large Tudor manor house with later additions and modifications 3 miles south-west of Guildford, Surrey, England in Artington close to the hamlet of Littleton. The estate was acquired by the direct ancestors of the current owners, the More-Molyneux, at the beginning of the 16th century. The house built for Sir William More is a Grade I listed building, the highest rank in architecture or heritage. Loseley appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as Losele. It was held by Turald from Roger de Montgomery. Its domesday assets were: 2 hides. It had 4 ploughs, 5 acres of meadow. It rendered £3. The papers of Sir Thomas Cawarden, Master of the Revels were formerly preserved in the house. Loseley Park is still the residence of the More-Molyneux family and is open to the public. The 17th century tithe barn is available for weddings.
context_section_description: The walled garden, based on a design by Gertrude Jekyll, contains a series of "rooms" with different themes running through them. The redevelopment of the garden commenced in 1993/4 with the Rose Garden and continued with the Herb Garden, Flower Garden, White Garden and, most recently, the organic Vegetable and Cut Flower Garden. The gardens are surrounded by an old wall of similar age to the house and contain a vine walk, a huge spread of wisteria, the moat and moat walk, and the old mulberry tree around which a family prophecy revolves.
