Normanby Hall Victorian Walled Garden, Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire
The Normanby Hall Victorian walled garden is one part of the Country Park that also features a farming museum, a stableyard, duck ponds, a deer sanctuary, a fishing lake, a miniature railway and broadleaf woodland.
The park and gardens surround Normanby Hall, a classic English mansion, located near the village of Burton-upon-Stather, 5 miles (8.0 km) north of Scunthorpe.
It was built during the early 19th century, from the designs of Robert Smirke, for Sir Robert Sheffield whose family had resided on the site since the early-mid 16th century. The family's titles include Dukes of Buckingham and Normanby and Sheffield baronets.
The Sheffield family moved from Normanby Hall in 1963 and the Hall was passed into the care of the North Lincolnshire Council.
