The gardens are an environmental community project with the emphasis on conservation, preservation and education. Much has been achieved in the last few years to successfully encourage wildlife back into these historic gardens. Many old and rare plants and trees have been preserved and new trees planted to replace those that have died. We have catalogued the plants, trees, small birds and animals living in the gardens to record the information for future generations.

There are nine grade listed buildings around the square, which has been part of the Eastgate and St Michaels conservation area since 1968.
