The Ashmolean’s collection is incredibly rich, representing most of the world’s great civilisations, with objects dating from 8000 BC to the present day. Among its treasures are the world’s greatest collection of Raphael drawings, the most important collection of Egyptian pre-Dynastic sculpture and ceramics outside Cairo, the only great Minoan collection in Britain, outstanding Anglo-Saxon treasures, and the foremost collection of modern Chinese painting in the Western world.
Benington Lordship Gardens
In 2016, four weeping pear trees (Pyrus Salicifolia) were planted in the formal rose garden, which was underplanted with Rosa Kent and tulips and surrounded by box hedge. The formal area’s wildness bank is now planted with a plethora of spring bulbs, connecting it to the snowdrop path beyond.
