Moorbank Botanic Gardens, Botanical garden in Newcastle upon Tyne, England
The three-hectare garden complex includes specialized glasshouses containing collections of tropical and desert plants at different temperature zones.
The garden began its development in 1923 and expanded significantly in 1980 when it received a substantial plant collection from Corbridge.
Newcastle University managed this garden as an educational center, offering environmental workshops for primary schools in collaboration with local museums.
Located at Claremont Road, the garden permitted access through scheduled open days and arranged group tours by appointment.
The garden features specific sections for medicinal plants, rhododendrons, and potentilla, contributing to botanical research and conservation efforts.
