Background
History
The park and its manor house, Nowton Court, built in 1837, was owned by the Oakes family, headed by Henry Oakes, also lord of the manor of Nowton, from 1837 until his death. Nowton Court is now a nursing home called 'Nowton Court Village'. There is an avenue of lime trees planted around 1880. It offered Nowton Court a view to the northern boundary, in spring over 100,000 daffodils bloom beneath the trees.
