Bantock Park occupies the triangle formed by Broad Lane, Finchfield Road and Bradmore Road. Bantock House Museum is towards the eastern corner of the park. The city council's website informs us that the park is approximately 16 hectares (39.53 acres) in area. The west of the park is mostly open space, which still retains its 'rural' character, with gently undulating ground, hedgerows and a variety of trees with a nature trail. The eastern side of the park changes near Bantock House, becoming more formal. This area consists of a series of recently restored gardens, reminiscent of the detail emerging around the late nineteenth/twentieth century.
