Trentham Gardens 2023
Trentham Gardens 2023
The Trentham Estate in Staffordshire, England features in the Domesday Book of 1086 and was listed as a royal manor valued at 115 shillings. Trentham Hall was sold to James Leveson in 1540. Sir Richard Leveson had a new house built in the Elizabethan style in 1634 but it was demolished to make way for a later Georgian house. Sir William Leveson-Gower, 4th Baronet, built a new house on the site in 1690 and around 1730, John Leveson-Gower, 1st Earl Gower, erected a hall based on Buckingham House. This was to be substantially altered by his son, 1st Marquess of Stafford, between 1775 – 1778. The 2nd Duke of Sutherland commissioned Charles Barry to add an extension to parts of the house that dated between 1833 to 1842 while working on a rebuild of the Palace of Westminst...

Places to go in Staffordshire • Trentham Gardens • Trentham Estate • Trentham Hall
Come with us as we explore the Trentham Estate in Staffordshire. Trentham Estate is located on the A34 between Stone and Stoke on Trent/Newcastle under Lyme.
You could easily spend an entire day at the Estate. After leaving the car park, you arrive into an extensive shopping village, and a large garden centre. We bought tickets for admission to the Gardens, and circular lake walk.
The circular lake walk takes around an hour or so at a very gentle pace, while looking out for a variety of birds, wooden carvings, and other things to catch your eye.
At the end of the circular lake walk, there is a great café with beautiful views out over the lake. After a quick pit stop, continue on to the wonderful Italian gardens. There is also a Monkey Forest to explore too, with real life monkeys swin...

The TRENTHAM GARDENS classic car show 2023 | Feat. owner interviews
Our trundle over to the Trentham Gardens classic car show 2023 - or "classic & retro car show" to give it its actual title - is the focus of this Old Classic Car video.
The last time we visited Trentham Gardens in Staffordshire was when my youthful assistant was knee-high to a grasshopper for a kiddies' gathering/birthday party many years ago, and I've been meaning to visit the classic car show held here ever since. In 2023 we finally made it happen.
As the show's title suggests, this was a classic car and retro car meeting, so while I'll try and feature a bit of everything the main focus will, as usual, be on the older cars given that this is a classic car channel. Apologies if I missed out anyone's car, there were a great many classic cars in attendance at this year's Trentham Gardens c...

Trentham Gardens 2023
The Trentham Estate in Staffordshire, England features in the Domesday Book of 1086 and was listed as a royal manor valued at 115 shillings. Trentham Hall was sold to James Leveson in 1540. Sir Richard Leveson had a new house built in the Elizabethan style in 1634 but it was demolished to make way for a later Georgian house. Sir William Leveson-Gower, 4th Baronet, built a new house on the site in 1690 and around 1730, John Leveson-Gower, 1st Earl Gower, erected a hall based on Buckingham House. This was to be substantially altered by his son, 1st Marquess of Stafford, between 1775 – 1778. The 2nd Duke of Sutherland commissioned Charles Barry to add an extension to parts of the house that dated between 1833 to 1842 while working on a rebuild of the Palace of Westminster. The focal point of the building was a 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) campanile clock tower. The original approach to the hall was from the west, and had an Italianate grand entrance and a one-storey semicircular arcade range with side wings. Charles had continued to improve the house for another decade adding a new block with state bedrooms, dressing rooms, a servant's quarters and a clock tower all commonly referred to as the Riding School. Standing on the edge of a large cobbled stableyard it was the final major addition to the property and sadly now is virtually the only structure that remains of the 1851 imposing and once quoted "elegant mansion."
The 18th and 19th Century Parkland that surrounded Trentham Hall was designed by Lancelot "Capability" Brown, the Shakespeare of English garden design. The house served as the Staffordshire seat of the Dukes of Sutherland.
In the southern area of the Trentham Estate stands the monument to the 1st Duke of Sutherland. This colossal statue was raised in 1834 at the instigation of the second Duke, a year after the first Duke's death. The hall was one of many to be demolished in the 20th century, and was considered one of the greatest losses of the era. The River Trent no longer fed the lake in front of the hall, but still passed the edge of the estate. Sewage and effluent from the nearby potteries polluted it making life at the hall very unpleasant. The hall was abandoned as a residence in 1905 and was offered to Staffordshire County Council on condition that it be used as an institute of higher education. However an agreement could not be reached and with the council concerned that pollution from the Trent would render a residential institution at the hall undesirable, the county council declined the offer in 1906. The Duke of Sutherland then decided to offer the estate to the six Potteries towns the following year in the event that they went ahead with plans to merge into a single county borough, but after their 1910 federation, the new Stoke-on-Trent Corporation also declined the offer in 1911 due to its high potential cost of maintenance. This was to be the hall’s death knell and the 4th Duke of Sutherland ordered it to be demolished in 1912, although the sculpture gallery, clock tower and parish church along with a few other buildings, were saved from destruction, their Grade II listed remains are still on the Heritage at Risk Register. The 1758 "Capability Brown" designed gardens were superimposed over an earlier formal design of Charles Bridgeman but the current layout of Trentham Gardens is based on the surviving Barry formal gardens of the 1840s and in 2012 the Trentham Estate was selected as the site of a Royal Diamond Jubilee wood. Since the turn of the millennium, Trentham Gardens has undergone a £120 million redevelopment as a leisure destination and it’s regeneneration includes restoration of the Italian gardens and adjacent woodlands. The goal is to avoid a theme park-like attraction, but instead offer "authentic experiences" for all ages.

You could easily spend an entire day at the Estate. After leaving the car park, you arrive into an extensive shopping village, and a large garden centre. We bought tickets for admission to the Gardens, and circular lake walk.
The circular lake walk takes around an hour or so at a very gentle pace, while looking out for a variety of birds, wooden carvings, and other things to catch your eye.
At the end of the circular lake walk, there is a great café with beautiful views out over the lake. After a quick pit stop, continue on to the wonderful Italian gardens. There is also a Monkey Forest to explore too, with real life monkeys swinging through the trees. We didn't visit the Monkey Forest on this occasion, but maybe next time.
After exploring the Italian gardens, you can view from a distance the exterior of one section of Trentham Hall, the long since ruined remains of the old Manor House. Despite a number of attempts over the years to restore it, it sadly stands derelict.
You can also see the infant River Trent flow alongside the Hall, and the circular walk. See our video on finding the source of the river upstream at Biddulph Moor just north of Stoke.
We hope you enjoy the video, and that it inspires you to visit Trentham Hall, a great day out for all the family.

Our trundle over to the Trentham Gardens classic car show 2023 - or "classic & retro car show" to give it its actual title - is the focus of this Old Classic Car video.
The last time we visited Trentham Gardens in Staffordshire was when my youthful assistant was knee-high to a grasshopper for a kiddies' gathering/birthday party many years ago, and I've been meaning to visit the classic car show held here ever since. In 2023 we finally made it happen.
As the show's title suggests, this was a classic car and retro car meeting, so while I'll try and feature a bit of everything the main focus will, as usual, be on the older cars given that this is a classic car channel. Apologies if I missed out anyone's car, there were a great many classic cars in attendance at this year's Trentham Gardens classic car show, and it was fun to see lots of classics for the first time.
Highlights for me included example(s) of:
Mk1 Austin A40
Armstrong Siddeley Sapphire
Reliant Scimitar SE4 Coupe
MG Montego & Maestro Turbo
Peugeot 305
Austin K9 lorry
SAAB 99 Turbo 2 door
1913 Chalmers tourer
Austin A90 Atlantic DHC
Innocenti Mini Cooper
Ford Consul Capri (Hooper conversion)
Riley Kestrel (1100 shape)
Jaguar Mk1 saloon (3.8!)
Plymouth Belvedere police car
Austin A40 Cambridge
Renault 5 Gordini Turbo
1920s Humber tourer
Frisky Sport
Invicta Black Prince
Lancia Flaminia
... and many more. I believe over 900 cars had been pre-booked, which might explain how long it took to get around everything.
Also included are interviews with the owner of a magnificent vintage 1913 Chalmers tourer, and the near-unique surviving example of Hooper-updated Ford Consul Capri - both cars real rarities.
If you're new to the channel - HELLO! - please take a look around when you're finished here. Comments welcomed as always, was your old car featured in this Trentham Gardens classic car show video? Which of the classic cars or vintage cars was your favourite?
