Help plant 17,000 trees at Panshanger Park to create a lasting memoriam to Queen Elizabeth II
The Design
The plans have been inspired by the historic design of the Grade II* listed park and will restore woodland areas and parkland in the Northern part of the park which is currently used for farming.
To develop the design we have worked closely with our partners from Hertfordshire County Council, Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust and Maydencroft with additional advice sought from Historic England, Natural England, and Hertfordshire Gardens Trust.
Our plans have been submitted to the Forestry Commission for approval and we are aiming to start planting the trees in November 2022.
A Rich Royal History
The famous Panshanger Great Oak, which legend suggests was planted by Queen Elizabeth 1, was visited by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert when they stayed at Panshanger House in 1841. Prince Albert planted a tree grown from an acorn from the Great Oak at Speech House in the Forest of Dean. Our current Queen, Queen Elizabeth II, has since planted another tree at Speech House using an acorn from Prince Albert’s oak. We are planning to collect acorns from the Great Oak to grow new saplings that will be planted in the new woodland over the coming years
