Longner Hall has a landscape park and woodland, probably designed by Humphry Repton.

Brief history of site

By 1786 a park had been laid out. Longner Hall was then rebuilt around 1805 by John Nash for Robert Burton in the Tudor gothick style. Humphry Repton produced a Red Book for the landscape park at around the same time.
