Barton Grange Garden Centre opened in March 2008 following years of detailed planning and a whirlwind year of building! Eleven weeks later, the Garden Centre was officially opened by HRH Princess Anne.

We are committed to running an environmentally friendly business – you can read about our  Environmental Policy by clicking here. And, as an independent, family run business, we’re totally committed to the old-fashioned ideas of friendly customer service and good, solid advice.

The Garden Centre is part of the Barton Grange Group, owned and run by the Topping family from Barton near Preston. The group of companies dates back to 1945 when Mr and Mrs Edward Topping bought a small manor house on the A6 at Barton with plans to turn it into a hotel.

Over 65 years later, the Group now includes not only the planned hotel, but the award-winning Barton Grange Garden Centre, a successful landscaping business, three large plant nurseries, a marina on the Lancaster Canal and more recently, The Flower Bowl Entertainment Centre which is a leisure complex offering premium entertainment, dining and leisure facilities.
