UK Japanese style gardens open to the public

The UK has a number of publicly accessible Japanese style gardens shown in the listing below.
It includes some of historic interest and value as well as very recently constructed gardens. The gardens vary greatly in both size and standard. Many of the gardens are sited in public spaces or parks and some unfortunately have been subject to damage and lack of 
maintenance. 

Appreciation of these gardens is to a large extent subjective and this particular selection is not intended to identify ‘the best’ gardens, merely to reflect the wide range of gardens and their different styles that are open to the public.

To add further detail to each garden, if known the date of construction, date of any restorations and brief descriptions are also given. 
Images of the gardens may not be recent and have been supplied by JGS members unless otherwise stated.
