Devon Gardens Trust seeks to promote and conserve Devon’s important designed landscapes for future generations. Those designed landscapes may be gardens, parkland, public parks, or cemeteries, private and public, some dating back five hundred years others created in the last fifty years.
We work with owners, managers and local authorities to ensure that those gardens, parks and cemeteries of special historic importance are recognised and conserved. To achieve this we undertake research, promote public awareness and understanding, encourage and support education in horticulture and the historic designed landscape and comment on planning proposals affecting important designed landscapes.
