Making history since 1880

Larmer Tree was created by General Pitt Rivers in 1880. Part of the Rushmore Estate, home to the Rotherley Downs and Cranborne Chase Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), Larmer Tree is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and an internationally recognised Dark Sky reserve. Situated on the border of Wiltshire and Dorset, near Salisbury and Shaftesbury, Larmer Tree has been recognised as Grade II* listed park and garden by Historic England.
