Created around 150 years ago, Biddulph Grange Garden is the product of an extraordinary imagination. Designed in the mid 19th century as a series of connecting 'compartments', one of Britain's most exciting and unusual gardens. Featuring the imitation of the Great Wall of China, the Egyptian Court as well as pinetum, rock-gardens and fernery.

James Bateman designed it as a rich and varied series of 'gardens within a garden', to amaze and impress his friends and visitors.

A cleverly planned frame work of hedges, rocks, banks and planting conceal these separate areas, each with its own distinct theme or style.

Equally important, the garden was a home for Bateman's wide ranging collection of plants, such as the fine collection of conifers in the Pinetum, the newly introduced Himalayan Rhododendrons in the Glen, and the varied and exotic planting in China.
