Retford park is a picturesque and important historical house and garden in the southern highlands. Working closely with Tanner Architects, Arterra was engaged by the client to assist in the preparation of a Conservation Management Plan for Retford Park. It is a picturesque and important historical house and garden developed from the late 1800s onwards by the Hordern family. It was purchased in 1964 by the current owner, Mr James Fairfax. The work included research and assessment of the landscape heritage and visual studies to determine the appropriate heritage curtilage to be applied.
