Details:
Gorhambury Park is an 18th century landscaped park which developed from woodland and deer park associated with the former Gorhambury House built by Sir Nicolas Bacon on the edge of the Roman city of Verulamium. The estate includes a major part of the remains including the theatre and a Roman villa.

This project was carried out to satisfy the terms required to secure grant aid for a ten-year agreement to part-fund the conservation, repair and restoration of the historic landscape. The restoration plan aimed to assess the historic, wildlife and landscape elements of the 800-acre park and propose a programme of work required to achieve the restoration objectives, which was subsequently used to secure funding for a 10-year Countryside Stewardship agreement.
