Local List of Parks/Gardens of Historic and Landscape Interest
Historic parks and gardens are characteristic features of east and west Suffolk – either side of the High Suffolk clay plateau. This reflected the position of the largest landed estates - including in the Suffolk Sandlings - and also their geographical distribution along the historic route between Ipswich and Great Yarmouth. These parks were construed as primarily an aesthetic landscape – an irregular, ‘naturalistic’ setting of grass, trees and woodland around a big house. Parks were expressions of status and wealth, marking out the owner as a member of the landed elite.

Biodiversity Net Gain
What is Biodiversity Net Gain?
The Environment Act 2021 (legislation.gov.uk) lays out how Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) can contribute to the recovery of nature whilst still allowing land to developed. The purpose of BNG is to ensure that more habitats are available, and that they are in a better condition, than before development occurred. All relevant planning applications will be required to demonstrate how they achieve 10% Biodiversity Gain as part of the development. This will involve the submission of a Biodiversity Gain Plan, Statutory Biodiversity Metric and Habitat Management and Monitoring Plan for approval by the Local Planning Authority.

National Register of Parks/Gardens of Special Historic Interest
There are fourteen parks and gardens in the East Suffolk District included on the National Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest compiled by Historic England. Under the Historic Buildings and Ancient Monuments Act 1953 Historic England compiles a register of “gardens and other land” situated in England that appear to be of special historic interest. The main purpose of this Register is to celebrate designed landscapes of note, and encourage appropriate protection. It is hoped that drawing attention to sites in this way will increase awareness of their value and encourage those who own them, or who otherwise have a role in their protection and their future, to treat these special places with due care.
