Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The relationship between town and garden in the medieval burgh was a close one. One of the main reasons for a burgh's existence was to bring about a concentration of people to provide a market for goods and to provide a focus for local agriculture. In the Canongate there is a long history of gardening, of a grander and more specialist kind, and on a more ambitious scale than the rest of Edinburgh. The more complex typology of the garden in this area is related partly to topography but mainly to the proximity of Holyrood Palace and its predecessor, Holyrood Abbey. | |||
