Derek Jarman - Prospect Cottage

Derek Jarman was a painter, theatre designer and filmmaker.
In an inhospitable place like the barren fields next to the Dungeness power station in Kent, he created this breathtakingly beautiful garden. The humble cottage is surrounded by beach finds that he turned into sculptures. And he planted the perfect plants for this kind of place.
The area is of a strange beauty if you want to see it. Some people might only see a power station, stranded skeletons of boats that will never get into the water again and a weird looking barren desolate plain. But there is this unique atmosphere which you will notice if you take the time to walk around and not just drive past.
