Tresco Abbey Gardens are located on the island of Tresco in the Isles of Scilly, United Kingdom. The 17 acre gardens were established by the nineteenth-century proprietor of the islands, Augustus Smith, originally as a private garden within the grounds of the home he designed and built. The gardens are designated at Grade I in the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. ==Tresco Abbey== Augustus Smith chose Tresco as the site of his home because the site was more or less central in relation to the rest of the islands. It is also close to the original abbey ruins, is near a fresh water pool and overlooks the sand dunes and beach at Carn Near. The area at the time was barren land and the original building, designed by Smith and started in 1835, was small in comparison to the current building. He made additions to the house in 1843 and 1861. The Grade II listed house consists of roughly coursed granite with ashlar dressings and a slate roof. Some of the timbers from the 1861 wreck of the ''Award'' were used for the panelling and roof of the new dining room, as well as panelling of the rooms Annet, Rosevean and Rosevear.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tresco.co.uk/what-to-do/abbey-garden/valhalla_award.aspx )〕 His successor, Thomas Algernon Smith-Dorrien-Smith added the tower in 1891.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1141200 )〕
