University Park Campus
University Park Campus is the main campus of the University of Nottingham, England. A few miles from the centre of Nottingham, the 330 acre (1.3 km²) site is one of the largest university campuses in the United Kingdom, and home to the majority of the University's 27,000 students. The campus contains 12 Halls of Residence, the East Midlands Conference Centre, and 13 listed buildings, the most notable of which include the Trent Building, the Portland Building, and the Hallward Library.
Gardens:
The campus is widely regarded for the extent of its greenery, and regularly wins awards for its landscaping. Of particular note are the formal Jekyl Garden, allegedly designed by Gertrude Jekyl, next to Hugh Stewart Hall; the walled Highfield Garden near the Trent building, which is home to the national collection of Canna; and the new Millenium Garden, formally opened in 2000, which has won several awards. In addition there is extensive planting elsewhere on campus, particularly in lakeside Highfields Park.
