Charles is the great great great nephew of the Charles Fox (1797-1878), who was responsible for the original plantings at Trebah and whose vision we see realized to day.
Charles was brought up and lives at Glendurgan, which was developed into the garden now owned by the National Trust. In addition to his knowledge of the area and his knowledge of the Fox family, he is also qualified as a garden designer and has been leading groups around the Fox family gardens, and other Cornish gardens, for over 30 years.
