The Sayagyi U Ba Khin Memorial Trust, Heddington

The Sayagyi U Ba Khin Memorial Trust, a Buddhist foundation, bought Splatts in 1979 to create a Buddhist centre. Some of the farm buildings were altered or rebuilt to accommodate visiting students and monks. In 1989, a ‘Light of the Damma’ gilded pagoda was built in the garden and it contains a ring of seven meditation cubicles surrounding an inner teaching area.
