Suffolk Coastal has many historically important private and
public parks and gardens, some with large houses. 22 parks and
gardens have been recorded in
Supplementary Planning Guidance 'Historic parks
and gardens' (SPG 6), the purpose of the document is to highlight
their importance and special qualities.
Some of these areas are situated within
conservation areas, some have listed buildings
and some are contained in the
English Heritage Register of Parks and Gardens
(new window).
Special planning considerations apply to these parks and gardens
and advice is available from Suffolk Coastal. It is also recognised
that there are many other parks and gardens which have special
historic qualities.
