Burghley Park was successfully entered into a 10-year Higher Level Stewardship scheme towards the end of 2013, with management and restoration proposals guided by a Parkland Management Plan (Cookson and Tickner, 2013).
One of the main projects identified for part-funding through HLS was the restoration of the Walled Garden, located towards the south of the park.
An extensive walled enclosure originating in the 18th century, the Walled Garden was largely derelict apart for some small-scale use for productive horticulture and the residential occupation of the former Head Gardener’s cottage and gardener’s accommodation.
