The Botanic Gardens in Southport are aptly named 'The Jewel in the Crown'. Nationally renowned for their floral displays, which have been featured in the BBC TV program 'Gardener's World', the gardens are popular with local people and visitors alike. Located in Churchtown, the park can be found by following the brown signs from all major roads into Southport.
