Grafting anfc Sbaping Grounds 199 



The illustration of Mr. Agar's estate is introduced 

 to show how the shape of a lawn can be graded so as 

 to give the impression of no change of surface what- 

 ever, just a retention of the natural character of the 

 place by blending and moulding the contour lines of 

 the ground. 



The centre of the lawn to the north has been greatly 

 depressed, and still further to the north it has been 

 raised considerably and trees and shrubs planted to 

 shut out an unattractive view.
