"An historic property next to Barton-on-the-Heath Church featuring a fine arboretum containing many rare specimens, mostly of young age. But some Victorian and pre-Victorian trees are also present, notably a huge Sweet Chestnut that may date from the construction of the House (c1570). The arboretum is still being actively developed by the owner and can be viewed on open days. It has important collections of Arbutus (the National NCCPG one)."
