About Burton Manor Walled Garden

There is much to see in both the Walled Garden with its collections of seasonal vegetables, fruits and herbs, and the flower garden planted with herbaceous plants at their best in spring and summer. Cut flowers for the house would have been a feature of the garden and dahlias and chrysanthemums represent these much as they might have done in the Edwardian era.
Beyond the Walled Garden the mighty purple beech planted to commemorate the winning of the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, has succumbed to disease making it unsafe. It has been felled and a Cornus controversa ‘Variegata’ planted in its place. A Sunken Garden, terrace gardens and views to Wales across the estuary of the River Dee. await the visitor. Work is ongoing to restore and develop new areas adjacent to the Perimeter Path and Gladstone Rock Walk including Ornamental Grasses and Mediterranean Beds.
