Hewell Grange, Bentley Pauncefoot / Tutnall and Cobley - Bromsgrove

Multi-phase landscape, including work influenced by 'Capability' Brown and Humphry Repton. Another period of activity took place towards the end of C19 when the current house was built. Post-war development by the Prison Service has had a major impact on the legibility of the design. A management plan and partnership with the County Gardens Trust has led to renewed interest in and care for the designed landscape, including restoration of key features. Following closure in autumn 2020, Historic England is working closely with the Ministry of Justice to secure its sustainable future use.
