Introduction
Plas Heaton is a very ancient site with an early-19th-century park and woodland gardens. These gardens have a complete woodland circuit walk probably contemporary with the remodelling of the house in the 1860s. The start of the walk is marked by a circle of yews, and ends on a terrace with views to the Clwydian Hills and the Irish Sea.
