As an aside during all this blasted rain, I was interested to find out recently that the Jekyll family name was the inspiration behind the title 'Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde' by Robert Louis Stevenson. Gertrude's younger brother was a friend of R.L's. Marvellous!
The only Jekyll garden I've seen is the one on Lindisfarne, where I could only peer over the gate. I'd love to see more and learn about this lady.
