Bono might live close by, but the real celebrities are the wildlife in the garden of this 1833 granite cottage
Briefly

"Yeah, it is built from granite, on granite. There were three small quarries there back in the day... I got my pickaxe, and I took everything out from the front, and I dug holes into the soft granite that was underneath the crazy paving... I brought in good topsoil and basically planted into that... the planting is for nature, to help biodiversity."
"There's a need for balance in how we live. Nature's little gems, be it butterflies or birds, are the real celebrities around here, and that’s what gives life to our landscape."
