Barton
Grange Garden Centre
Established in 1963, Barton grange garden
centres comprising this centre, one in Preston and another in
Woodford, has an enviable reputation as a leader in the field
of gardening and outdoor leisure. Having developed its own
wholesale plant growing division, Barton grange can offer a
high quality range of trees, shrubs, seasonal bedding plants
and houseplants.
To complement this range of plants, the
centre can supply you with everything from tools to fertilisers
to garden
furniture, tropical and coldwater fish and a range of
pets and accessories. After a million pound refurbishment,
this award-winning centre now boasts a huge range of
services, quality products and expertise.
Much of the hardy nursery stock is home
grown, as are many of the flowering houseplants for the home,
conservatory or office. The pets and aquatics department has
also been extensively refurbished, so that it now offers a
comprehensive range of pet accessories and water gardening
products, including both cold-water and tropical fish.
The gift shop is also well worth a visit
providing a good day out for all the family. The colliers
kitchen restaurant serves a selection of light meals, snacks
and home-made cakes and deserts in surroundings with a mining
theme, adorned with an abundance of old photographs of the
former Victoria colliery.
The centrepiece of this distinguished eatery
is a manual winding wheel. Seasonal events and promotional days
are held throughout the year, consisting of children's
weekends, workshops and classes demonstrating the techniques
behind various planting schemes, floristry and creating the
perfect hanging basket. An October fireworks festival and
special Christmas event, in 1997 at the centre won the GCA best
Christmas display award.
