We will begin with the Curvilinear Range (1843-1869) and assess its construction design and restoration, before continuing indoors to look at highlights of the plantcollections.
We will then move onto the Great Palm House (c.1884) where again we will look at design, construction and restoration work undertaken before moving inside to look at the plant collections housed inside.
The tour will end with an exclusive tree top canopy walk on the gantry of the Palm House.
