The Park, University of Gloucestershire, University park in Cheltenham, England

The Park spans 9.5 hectares with grassland meadows, wooded glades, shrubberies, hedgerows, and an ornamental lake within the University of Gloucestershire campus.

Thomas Billings acquired the site in 1831 to create the Gloucestershire Zoological and Botanical Gardens, though architect Samuel Whitfield Daukes later transformed it into pleasure grounds.

The campus serves as a creative center for media, design, and technology students who utilize professional equipment in specialized facilities throughout the grounds.

Visitors can access the main car park through The Park entrance between Merestones Road and Brook Court, with pay-and-display parking available.

The grounds contain approximately 900 trees, including giant sequoia and cedar of Lebanon, with some specimens dating back to the early nineteenth century.
