SJ7481 : Tatton Park Italian Garden
taken 5 years ago, near to Mere, Cheshire East, England

The whole garden is skilfully terraced down the hillside towards the hollow originally occupied by Turn Mere and ends in a terracotta balustrading at the bottom (also added in 1887) which overlooks the park. The garden layout can best be appreciated from the mansion, as was intended.
Tatton Park Gardens lie immediately to the south of Tatton Hall Link , and consist of formal and informal gardens within Tatton Park Link . Included in the gardens are an Italian garden, a walled garden, a rose garden and the Japanese garden. The buildings in the garden are the Conservatory, the Fernery and the Showhouse. The gardens are owned by the National Trust and administered by Cheshire East Council.
The gardens are registered under the Historic Buildings and Ancient Monuments Act 1953 within the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens by English Heritage, designated at Grade II* for special historic interest(LinkNational Heritage List for England). They are open to the public at advertised times (Link
