The gardeners that made Stowe
In its fastest period of growth, Stowe built up gradually over a period of nearly 30 years with the skills of world renowned gardeners and architects. Throughout the decades, lakes were created by hand, mature trees planted and countless temples and monuments were built. Take a closer look at their work.

Whilst they had a large and lasting effect, numerous other architects and gardeners have worked on the landscape over the centuries. Today our team of gardeners and volunteers make up the current chapter in the story of Stowe.
