THE 140 acre landscaped grounds of Paultons Park will be open to the public for an annual charity evening.
The Ower estate was transformed in the 18th century into naturalistic landscaped gardens by the renowned landscape architect, Capability Brown. Many of his original layouts are still evident today within the park’s meticulously curated and themed gardens.
During the charity open evening on Thursday 11th September visitors will have an opportunity to tour the landscaped grounds and hear from the park’s expert gardening and management team about the history of the gardens.

All proceeds from tickets will go to the park’s five charity partners – Lymphoma UK, Young Lives vs Cancer, Southampton Hospitals Charity (Children’s Hospital), and Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance.
The Trekking Tractors, Rio Grande Train, and Dino Tour Company rides will be operating to take garden enthusiasts on a journey through the colourful planting.
