COTSWOLDS FINEST GARDENS (PB)

Using evocative text and delightful imagery, Tony Russell brings to life fifty Cotswold gardens which allow public access at some time during the year. He covers their history, plants, architecture and personalities including grand landscapes such as Blenheim Palace and Dyrham Park, influential pioneers at Iford Manor and Rousham, historical gems such as Prior Park and Painswick Rococo Garden, national icons at Westonbirt Arboretum and Hidcote Manor, contemporary masterpieces at Througham Court and Abbey House as well as an abundance of English gardens in all their beauty, overflowing with roses, herbaceous borders and pastel shades.
