DJ top and bottom slightly shelf wornThis beautifully produced volume, the outcome of many decades of research, is a celebration of Norfolk?s particularly rich heritage of parks and gardens. I t provides a detailed exploration of the history of gardening and landscape arch itecture in the county, from the geometric gardens of the sixteenth and seventee nth centuries, through the landscape parks of the eighteenth century and the civ ic spaces of the nineteenth, to the emergence of modern ideas of ecological and ?minimalist? garden design. It describes in detail more than three hundred o f the most beautiful and significant gardens and designed landscapes in the coun ty. Many of these were the work of famous designers such as Lancelot ?Capabili ty? Brown, Humphry Repton, Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll, but others were made by more obscure professionals, or were lovingly created by gifted amateurs, plantsmen and women.

Lavishly illustrated throughout in full colour, and with an introduction by the distinguished landscape and garden historian Tom Williamson, Norfolk Gardens an d Designed Landscapes will be essential reading for all those interested in the history of the county and its landscape, and in the history of gardens more gene rally.Table of ContentsForewordHRH The Prince of WalesP refaceIntroduction1.
