We visited Isabella Plantation, 40 acres of lawns and glades, with streams and ponds within Richmond Park during mid-Spring of 2009. There are lovely collections of rhododendrons and azaleas at their best.

Richmond Park covers 2,358 acres and is Europe's largest urban walled park (the wall is 8 miles long). Its origins as a place for royal deer hunting go back to Edward I (1272-1307) and it still retains a 650+ herd of deer (Red & Fallow). The continuous grazing by the deer has shaped the park's habitats, maintaining stunning views over rolling grasslands and majestic parkland trees.

Richmond Park is London's largest Site of Special Scientific Interest, a National Nature Reserve, a candidate European Special Area of Conservation and a Grade 1 Listed landscape, all of which shows it to be a nationally and internationally important site for wildlife conservation.
