Description

Biddulph Grange Garden

A rare and exciting survival of a high Victorian garden

Designed in the mid-19th century by James Bateman to display specimens from his extensive and wide-ranging plant collection, the garden is set out in a series of connected ‘compartments’. Visitors are taken on a journey of discovery through tunnels and pathways to individual gardens inspired by countries around the world — from the tranquility of a Chinese garden or an Egyptian Court to a formal Italian garden
