Period Notes

Period Notes The landscape began being designed in 1701-8, although a castle has been on the site since at least 1303. The landscape has been added to and worked on throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, until 1874 when the eleventh Earl died. Improvements were made to the walled garden between 1902 and 1928, and a woodland garden was also introduced. The gardens have since been worked on from 1950 to the present. HES designated landscape since 01/07/1987.
