Heythrop Zoological Gardens

Heythrop, United Kingdom

Heythrop Zoological Gardens was a private zoo and animal training centre in Heythrop, near Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire. The zoo had the largest private collection of exotic animals in the United Kingdom. The site also housed Amazing Animals, an animal training company that provided exotic animals for the film industry. The company provided the majority of "zoo–type" animals for British film sets. The Zoo and its film and TV arm was founded by Jim and Sally Clubb in 1977. It operated for nearly 50 years until its closure in March 2026 when the original owner retired.
