You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Longstock Park''' is in the [[civil parish]] of [[Longstock]] in the [[Test Valley]] district of [[Hampshire]], England, and forms part of the [[Leckford Estate]] (1520 [[hectares|ha.]]), wholly owned by the [[John Lewis Partnership]]. 

== Description ==
Formerly Longstock Manor, of [[medieval]] origins, the park was purchased by Sir Joshua East in 1849. On his death, the park passed to his sons Alfred and Arthur. In 1914, the park became the home of the Beddington family until 1945, when it was sold to [[John Spedan Lewis]], founder of the John Lewis Partnership. Lewis lived at Longstock House throughout his retirement until his death in 1963, after which the house became a retreat for the company's executives. The park is today home to a retail horticultural emporium, the Longstock Park Nursery, and also accommodates an [[arboretum]], [[woodland garden]]s and [[water garden]]s.

==Nursery and walled garden==
The nursery, initially a wholesale enterprise, was founded in 1958 with the appointment of James Duncan as Director of Gardening. A mist propagation house, one of the earliest of its kind, was built soon afterwards, and John Brooks hired as Propagator. The nursery is set in and around a brick and flint walled garden, and is home to collections of ''[[Buddleja]]'' and ''[[Clematis viticella]]'' (accredited with [[Plant Heritage]] under the [[National Plant Collection]] scheme)<ref>((Cite web |title=Buddleja: Longstock Park Nursery |url=https://www.plantheritage.org.uk/national-plant-collections/search-the-national-plant-collections/collection/1884/buddleja |access-date=16 March 2022 |website=[[Plant Heritage]]))</ref><ref>((Cite web |title=Clematis viticella: Longstock Park Nursery |url=https://www.plantheritage.org.uk/national-plant-collections/search-the-national-plant-collections/collection/1900/clematis-viticella |access-date=16 March 2022 |website=Plant Heritage))</ref> and the Gilchrist Collection of [[Penstemon]]s. Immediately to the south is an 80&nbsp;m herbaceous border; running parallel with it is a clematis and fruit tree archway, flanked by beds of Buddleja cultivars. The nursery and walled garden are open to the public throughout the year.

==Water gardens==
The water gardens comprise three hectares of woodland garden with lakes and interconnecting islands, declared 'the finest water gardens in the world' by the [[International Water Lily Society]]. The gardens were formed by accident; in 1870, Alfred and Arthur East, the owners of Longstock House, had gravel dredged from the banks of the River Test to construct a private road to their property, creating the lake in the process. After the Easts sold the property in 1914, Reginald Beddington, son of the new owner, elected to make an aesthetic feature of the lake.

The water gardens are usually open to the public on alternate weekends during the summer. An entrance fee is levied; no dogs except guide dogs are admitted.

==Arboretum==
The arboretum was begun in 1869, and now comprises 28 hectares of mature trees including a [[pinetum]] with many exotic conifers. The arboretum is opened to the public in concert with the water gardens.

==Location==
The Park is near the town of [[Stockbridge, Hampshire|Stockbridge]], which lies 2.7 miles (3.5&nbsp;km) to the south-west.
