Sheringham Park, Landscape park surrounding historic house in Sheringham, England.
Sheringham Park is a landscape park surrounding a historic house in Norfolk, England, featuring woodland areas and extensive gardens. The grounds contain substantial collections of rhododendrons, azaleas, and multiple magnolia varieties planted throughout.
The estate was purchased in the early 1800s by Abbot and Charlotte Upcher, who commissioned a leading landscape architect of the period. The design reflected principles of English landscape gardening that were influential during that era.
The park's name reflects its connection to the nearby fishing village and the broader Norfolk coast community. Visitors can experience how the grounds were designed to frame views and create a dialogue between the house and the surrounding landscape.
The site sits at a convenient road junction and is straightforward to reach by car. An on-site visitor center provides orientation help and refreshment options for those exploring the grounds.
Several observation towers are positioned throughout the grounds to capture views over the Norfolk coast and surrounding countryside. These structures were deliberately placed to take advantage of the site's elevated location and natural vantage points.
