Description
Remains of eighteenth and nineteenth century landscaped park and gardens at Great Brickhill Manor
Relict parkland; no obvious evidence of formal gardens. Castellated 'folly' wall listed grade II (B6).
The remains of a park, garden and pleasure grounds laid out in the early and mid-C19 around a now
lost C18 and C19 country house, probably on the site of an earlier manor house. The framework of
the site survives largely intact, particularly the boundary, entrances, park features including The
Shrubberies, an extensive belt, and elements of the garden layout, but the principal buildings and
some of the drives and paths have gone. Even so, the site of the former house remains as the focus
of the landscape. A detached approach from Watling Street to the north-east through Duncombe
Wood survives, terminated at either end by two sets of lodges. See report for detail (B7).
