Knebworth House

There have been gardens at Knebworth since the 1600's. The present layout dates from Victorian and Edwardian times, with more recent additions and improvements. In their Victorian heyday, the Gardens were well known for their Italianate layout attributed to the eccentric statesman and author Edward Bulwer-Lytton. The central formal area was later simplified in 1911 by the Edwardian architect Sir Edwin Lutyens. Since 1980 the gardens have been undergoing a programme of restoration and development. The aim is to restore many of the gardens' original features as well as add new features to improve ease of access and enjoyment of the gardens.
