Introduction
Rosehill's landscape park is situated in a picturesque location above the River Dee. It survives in its entirety and dates from the late-18th or early-19th century. The garden has a box-edged parterre dating from the early-20th century, although the terracing may be earlier. There is a well-preserved and fully productive walled kitchen garden.
