The hemispherical roofed dipping well on the second terrace, also styled by the influence of Jekyll/Lutyens, once contained a head with water spouting from its mouth. Across the South lawn a herbaceous border has been created in the tradition established by such gardeners as William Robinson and Gertrude Jekyll. Tennis courts to the South West of the Mansion were probably laid out by the Courtaulds. They were surrounded on three sides by yew hedges to screen them from the gardens and to give protection from the wind. Nearby on the South lawn, the family and their guests played croquet, an essential feature of upper class life in the 1920's. Such is the importance of the work that has been carried out, that Burton Park has been featured in Country Life. |

A layout
of terraces, rose beds and a Gertrude Jekyll-Edwin Lutyens style pergola have
been designed and implemented along with extensive formal gardens South of the
Mansion. These include large areas of trees (see photograph), shrubs and a
large rockery leading to a bridge that was previously constructed by Sir Douglas
Hall, over Chingford Pond.
