Abstract
This article raises new questions about the use of land for parks in competition with other land uses and examines conflicts between private and public interests over ownership and access to parkland. The identification of parks in this study is based on areas signified as parks or ornamental grounds by the Ordnance Survey. From 1873 onwards, the wealth and power of the great landowning families declined. Successive owners demolished country houses and converted parks to new uses as public recreation grounds, golf courses, playing fields for schools, hospitals and other institutions. Privately owned parks are rapidly disappearing and remains of historic designed landscapes, ancient woodlands, chalk downlands and diverse wildlife are in danger of being lost.
