More about this scene
Lady Daresbury took great pride in developing botanical gardens at Walton with specimen planting in the style of Kew; thousands of local people enjoyed visiting them on annual open days. In December 1941 Warrington Borough Council purchased the Hall and 171 surrounding acres from the Greenall family for £19,000. Since 1945, Walton Gardens have been a popular public park.
