Oakes Park

Oakes Park is a Grade II listed estate centered on a Georgian manor house surrounded by landscaped gardens and parkland. The property includes several historic buildings and combines formal designed areas with open grounds.

The original site dates to 1590, but the current manor house was built in 1668. The estate underwent significant changes over centuries and eventually became a protected heritage property.

The house functions as a holiday center offering programs and activities for young visitors. It serves as a gathering space where people can experience the estate's historic character through organized events and guided tours.

The estate is located along Norton Lane with walking paths crossing through parkland and garden areas. Visitors should check current access conditions and opening times, as some structures are protected heritage buildings.

During the Bagshawe family ownership, prisoners from the Napoleonic Wars participated in major landscaping work at the site. Their contributions shaped much of the parkland design that remains visible today.
