Primrose Hill

Cave at Prestwood near Stourton, Staffordshire This cave in the Triassic sandstone is on land belonging to Prestwood Cave Nursery. The nursery grows a limited range of hardy shrubs and other plants. Quality is high, and the prices are very reasonable. The hard winter of 2010-2011 killed many plants in nurseries all over the West Midlands, but enough remains here to continue trading.
