Custodians of a 300-Year-Old Garden
Where heritage horticulture meets community wellbeing.
A Traditional Garden Centre in a Historic Setting
Heaton Park Garden Centre is an old fashioned, traditional Garden Centre which concentrates on selling home grown plants from our own nurseries. Set within the historic grounds of the world famous Heaton Park, you can relax within the gardens which were planted over 100 years ago.
An 18th Century Horticultural Heritage
The Horticultural Centre was established within the 18th century walled garden that once supplied fruit and vegetables for the whole estate. The brick walls create a micro climate for the cultivation of crops and were used for supporting fruit and climbing plants.
27 Years of Growing Knowledge
For the last 27 years we have gained the knowledge to grow a more lasting plant with better health and due to the fact we grow our own we can pass the savings to you directly.
Why not come and spend some time with us! Our highly trained staff are there to answer any questions you might have. This is a Garden Centre you will fall in love with upon your first visit we guarantee!
