Painshill was one of the finest landscape gardens of the Georgian era, a garden designed to play on the senses and imagination.
During the 20th century it became neglected, overgrown and its buildings started to decay. Since 1981 restoration has been ongoing, through archive research, archaeological excavations and hard work.
Overseen by a dedicated staff and volunteers, the magic and beauty of Painshill can once more be enjoyed by visitors. Cherrill Sands is a freelance garden historian with an MA in the Conservation of Landscapes, Parks & Gardens. She has been a historical consultant at Painshill Landscape Garden in Surrey since 2004.
