How have I missed this thread?! Boy I could go wild here :)
I'm fortunate to live close to the Alnwick Garden which has possibly the best collection of Austin roses in the country. The rose garden which was only opened in 2001 is absolutely stunning in mid summer. There are all kinds of roses there but primarily Austins, and of course The Alnwick Rose was named for the garden.
Here are a couple of views.
