VIEW FROM THE WEST GARDEN AT GRAVETYE MANOR 



"What is often forgotten in discussing garden design is the importance of studying the ground when we get beyond the 

 often stiff line of the garden, and therefore the moment we are free of the garden, as in this case, we have to consider the 

 landscape itself from the point of view of breadth, simplicity, or any other attractions we can reveal in it. Hard lines, 

 ugly fences, needless roads and everything of the kind should be done away with." ("Home Landscapes," page 2.)
