304 GARDEN PLANNING 



The planning has followed the general 

 principles already expounded, though with a 

 certain latitude permitted by the circumstances, 

 and with concessions to the expressed wishes of 

 the owners, in some of the details. 



Fig. 127. This was a plot of irregular shape, through which ran an old 

 hedgerow with several standing elm trees, three or four of which were pre- 

 served. The line of this hedgerow followed the sloping path between the steps 

 to the east of it. Note the vista through the kitchen garden, with its back- 

 ground of fruit trees.
