" There is no such thing as a style fitted for every situation; only one who 

 knows and studies the ground well wiU ever make the best of a garden and any 

 ' style ' may be right, where the site fits it. I never see a house the ground around 

 which does not invite plans for itself only." W. ROBINSON. 



"All rational improvement of grounds is, necessarily, founded on a due 

 attention to the character and situation of the place to be improved; the former 

 teaches what is advisable, the latter what is possible to be done; while the extent 

 of the premises has less influence than is generally imagined; as, however large 

 or small it may be, one of the fundamental principles of landscape gardening 

 is to disguise the real boundary" REPTON.
