Brief history of site
Brodsworth Hall was built in the 1860s. The landscape park and gardens were created during and soon after the hall was built. Some replanting took place in the early-20th century and after World War 2. This did not significantly alter the original design. The site has been undergoing restoration since English Heritage took over the site in 1990.
