House £s? Garden 
THE EAST AVENUE 
have been set, if used at all, at the extreme 
corners of the lawn. 
The perfect symmetry of the forecourt 
garden is an echo of the balanced arrange¬ 
ment of the house itself. Two principal 
wings of the building project on this side 
and enclose a small court included within the 
precincts of the house by a stone balustrade. 
The surface of this space is of small stone 
chips, upon which are two beds of flowers 
following on each side the walls of the wings, 
then turning and paralleling the balustrade 
(see the plan illustrated in the January num¬ 
ber of House and Garden). Prim bay
