Registered parks and gardens

The register of parks and gardens classifies designated parks and gardens using the same designations as other heritage assets. These registered landscapes are graded I, II* or II and include private gardens, public parks and cemeteries, rural parkland and other green spaces. They are valued for their design and cultural importance and are distinct from natural heritage designations such as areas of outstanding natural beauty (AONB) and sites of specific scientific interest (SSSI).

Bolton has 5 registered parks and gardens:

  • Queens Park
  • Smithills Hall
  • Farnworth Park
  • Hulton Park
