Sheffield Botanical Gardens are situated approximately 1 mile south west of Sheffield City Centre. The site is set on a south - west sloping aspect within a residential area close to local businesses, major hospitals and Sheffield University. The Gardens are located at 120m altitude. The soil is a slightly acid clay loam. These 7.9 hectare (19 acre) gardens were originally designed by Robert Marnock (1800-1889) in the “Gardenesque” style. The Gardens date from 1833 and are grade 2 listed by English Heritage due to the preservation of much of the original design, and the concentration of historical listed buildings and structures. These include the Glass Pavilions that are some of the earliest curvilinear glass structures ever built. The Gardens are also a popular public park, with strong botanical and horticultural interest and open to the public, with free entry, 364 days a year.
