Historic Royal Palaces has shortlisted five companies to develop concept designs for a substantial new garden for children and families at
Hampton Court Palace.
We envisage an
exciting new interactive play garden on the site of the former hard tennis courts, a self-contained walled area measuring 0.6 hectares which occupies the North West corner of the Tiltyard area.
We are using the working title of ‘Magic Garden’ because we want it to be inspired by Hampton Court’s stories, legends and mythology, and to have a magical quality for all its users. As such, it will signpost the sense of discovery that exists throughout the remainder of the gardens and the palace, and will act as a springboard for further exploration.
