The Bishops Secret Garden in Ely

Take a circular tour through one of Ely’s best kept secrets, the Bishop’s Garden.

Did you know behind those incredible walls lies a great plane tree, dating back to 1647 and the most beautiful chapel.  The Bishops gardens tour includes a visit to the chapel in The Bishop’s House which people normally  do not get to see.

Join your guide at Oliver Cromwell’s House on a voyage of discovery and celebrate yet another part of Ely that is rarely open to public.

With kind permissions from King’s School Ely, the Bishop’s Garden and Chapel is open for  Heritage Open Days 2025. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to discover what lies behind the building façade. Tours last approximately 45 min, starting from Oliver Cromwell’s House Ely.
