Henham Park, Grade II listed park and garden in Wangford with Henham, England
Description
Henham Park is a listed estate with extensive gardens and parkland in eastern England. The grounds feature landscaped areas, open spaces, and wooded sections that reflect traditional British garden design across the property.
History
The estate was granted to Charles Brandon, First Duke of Suffolk, by King Henry VIII in 1513 and passed to the Rous family in 1544. This transition marked the start of the family's long stewardship of the grounds.
Culture
The Latitude Festival takes place here every July, drawing visitors for music, theatre, and comedy performances in this historic setting. The annual event shapes how many people experience and connect with the grounds throughout the year.
Practical
The estate offers accommodation in restored houses and cottages for visitors planning to stay longer. Various areas are available for private events and celebrations, so it's worth checking in advance which sections are open to the public.
