The Park Estate is one of the most remarkable residential estates in the UK and home to some magnificent Victorian architecture. We have the largest gas street lighting system in Europe which makes the estate particularly atmospheric at night. Our skyline is dominated by Nottingham Castle and the estate once held the Castle deer park and fishponds.

The Park Gardens Trail - Sunday, 10th June, 2007

Sunday, May 06, 2007 - 01:09 AM

There will be 16 gardens open in the 2007 Park Garden Trail - an event which is now held only every alternate year.

This year the gardens are very varied: from the large and old established with mature trees and shrubs to the very recently landscaped, from large to very small, from sunny to shaded.

Details of the gardens and a map are in the programme which visitors receive as they pay to enter. Teas will be served in two of the gardens and at the Tennis Club. In other gardens you can relax with a glass of Champagne or local beer , cool down with an ice cream , view the work of local artists, purchase plants, local honey or garden 'decor'.

Sytners are once again marking the entrance to each garden with the latest models of their luxury cars.

All the money raised at the Trail will go to local children's charities, mainly to Rainbows in Lougborough which is the only children's hospice in the East Midlands.

Please come and bring your friends.

Entrance £3.50. Pay at North Gate, Lenton Road (castle end) or Peveril Drive.

Does anyone know where the Lace-making machinery manufacturer Ernest Jardine used to live? He went on to buy Glastonbury Abbey in Somerset in 1907 where the curator would be interested to have more information about his past.
