In the 1800s it became a fad for wealthy landowners to pay people to essentially be resident garden gnomes. These people would become known as garden hermits and would go on to occupy a very interesting place in history. Several of these hermits had very difficult jobs: not being allowed to leave the property or cut their hair!


In this video Professor Jelly describes the history of the garden hermits and what their lives were like.
