Tring Park is a public open space, owned by Dacorum Borough Council and managed by the Woodland Trust.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=More about Tring Park )〕 It is part of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tring Park )〕 Half of the is undulating grassland, grazed by cattle. Part of the park, together with the nearby Oddy Hill, is the 35.6 hectare biological "Oddy Hill and Tring Park" Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The park formerly belonged to Tring Park, built in 1682 by Christopher Wren and altered externally in the nineteenth century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=THE MANSION (THE ARTS EDUCATIONAL SCHOOLS) )〕 In the early eighteenth century Charles Bridgeman was employed to lay out the grounds, with a summerhouse and other buildings designed by James Gibbs. The park is Grade II listed by English Heritage.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=TRING PARK )〕 The two areas of the SSSI are grassland on chalk scarp which have a diverse flora including rare species. Much of the parkland is managed by grazing, but ungrazed scrub on sloping areas provides habitat for invertebrates and breeding birds.〔 In the wooded Chiltern escarpment are former carriage rides. One of these, King Charles Ride or the King's Ride, forms part of the Ridgeway National Trail. In 2013 work started to restore King Charles Ride by replanting a cirle of lime trees at the 'rond point' and improving the vista over the park and town. In the northeast corner are two Grade II listed monuments: an obelisk known locally as Nell Gwynne's monument, and the summerhouse with a grand four-column temple-style portico. image:Tring park Kings Ride.jpg|King Charles Ride image:Tring park obelisk.jpg|The Obelisk image:Tring park summerhouse.jpg|The Summerhouse ==See also== *List of Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Hertfordshire 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tring Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
