Biddulph Grange Garden is a richly theatrical Victorian garden laid out as a sequence of themed worlds, from formal terraces to exotic plantings and rockwork. Its design makes it one of the more memorable garden visits in the Stoke-on-Trent area.
The garden is outside the city, but the detour is worthwhile for travelers with an interest in landscape design or National Trust properties. Allow time to wander slowly, because the appeal lies in transitions and details rather than one central viewpoint.
