Redland Court (also known as Redland High School for Girls)

Introduction

Redland Court contains the remnants of an 18th-century landscape park substantially built over from the mid-late 19th century. The gardens are on the site of a 17th-century Court with walled and terraced formal gardens. There is also a knot garden in box dating to around 1732 which was replanted in the 19th century, and a lime avenue to the house.
