Capel Manor College at EnfieldCapel Manor College at Enfield

The Enfield campus is set in 30 acres of idyllic parkland, themed and wooded/wilderness gardens, plus water features and a range of trial gardens, sponsored by Gardening Which?. The College also runs a working farm at nearby Forty Hall, close to Enfield Council's historic Forty Hall Museum and conference centre.

Capel Manor estate records go back to the 13th century, whilst the present Georgian manor house can be traced back to 1750. During the mid 1960s, the eminent local horticulturist Frances Perry, resident nearby, suggested to the local council that it could lease the badly neglected gardens of Capel Manor and a few out-buildings, in order to train craftsmen gardeners, (then mostly employed in local authority parks departments).

Enfield agreed and in 1968 the first group of students began training. There were twelve students then. Forty two years later, we welcome close to three thousand students.
