National Register Of Historic Parks And GardensThe main purpose of the Register of Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England is to safeguard the features and qualities of key landscapes for the future. It is hoped that listing sites of special interest will increase awareness of their value and encourage those who own them, or who have a part to play in their protection, to treat the sites with due care, whether this is a question of carrying out appropriate maintenance or making changes to the site. Gardening and landscape design have long been important preoccupations to the British and although a wealth of historic parks and gardens exist, they are a fragile and finite resource: they can easily be damaged beyond repair or lost forever. The register is managed by English Heritage. See Also English Heritage Properties in England External links English Heritage home page
