The Landscape
Milton Abbey Church – described as the cradle of the English Kingdom – is set within an internationally important landscape designed by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown. An exciting and vital project is being developed by a partnership of the Anglican Diocese of Salisbury, Milton Abbey School and Forestry Commission England who have together formed The Milton Abbey Heritage Trust which seeks to conserve, repair and restore Milton Abbey as a venue for spiritual, musical, learning and leisure events; as an interpretation centre for 1000 years of England’s history; and to provide much-needed visitor facilities. The Abbey is currently on English Heritage’s ‘At Risk’ register.
