Gallery: Panshanger Park

Panshanger park opened on 31st March 2014. The nature reserve and country park is owned by Tarmac, who manage the site together with Herts & Middlesex Wildlife Trust.

From the late 17th century to the early 20th century, the park was owned by the Cowper family. The estate was shaped around the Mimram Valley following advice from Humphry Repton and Lancelot 'Capability' Brown. Panshanger Park is registered as a Grade: II* park and garden by Historic England.

The park came in to the ownership of Tarmac in the 1980s and parts have been quarried for sand and gravel.
