Pano Sheffield Park

The gardens originally formed part of the estate of the adjacent Sheffield Park House, a gothic country house, which has remained in private ownership since the 1953 sale of the estate.[9]

 

The gardens are particularly noted for their plantings of trees selected for autumn colour, including many Black Tupelos.[10] It is home to the National Collection of Ghent azaleas.[11]

 

In 2005, education programmes undertaken by schools on the estate, were presented to the House of Commons, Education and Skills Committee, by the organisation Education Outside the Classroom.
