A Gardner with ambition?

The Herald reports "A school employee charged with sex offences".
An 18 year old youth is in court, lots of suppression orders.

There was a legend around Nth Canterbury in the early half of last century when long extinct, as a school, Amberley House was a desirable place of learning for a daughter of the gentry.

'Wanted an assistant Gardener to "trim the borders" and other gardening duties'.

Alas he did just that but misunderstood "boarders/borders", oh dear.
