Mr. Archibald Reid, to the Caledonian Horticultural 

 Society, in the year 1817, but was not published* in their 

 Transactions till 1825. 



The hanging trellis was subsequently used at Salton Hall, 

 in East Lothian, the seat of Andrew Fletcher, Esq. in a 

 new house, erected there according to the designs and plans 

 of Mr. John Hay, of Edinburgh. The trellis there, as I 

 have been informed, consisted of vertical spars of wood, fixed 

 to both sides of the rafter above, and below, to a frame of the 

 same thickness as the rafter, and formed like part of an arch, 

 passing from the front to the back wall. The narrowest part 

 of the trellis was towards the front, and it increased in depth 

 towards the back. 



A trellis upon the same principle, was erected in the spring 

 of 1822, by my father at Hopetoun House, where he is 

 Gardener, and where I then lived. It was adapted to a house, 

 (a section of which is annexed) fifty feet long, and fifteen wide.
