Abstract:
Oxford Archaeological Unit was commissioned by the National Trust, with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, to undertake a programme of archaeological investigations at Croome Park. Croome Part was the first complete landscape designed by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, who began work at the site in c.1751 and maintained a level of involvement until 1782. The landscape design had survived relatively intact, primarily due to the absence of any reworking of the parkland landscape since its completion in the early 19th century. OAU undertook a series of nine tasks targeted at particular areas or features within the parkland landscape. This report contained information pertaining to the Main Carriageway, the area around the Temple Greenhouse and the Evergreen Shrubbery, which included the Church Hill Clump and the Four Seasons Gap. Elements of Tasks 2, 3 and 5 and the whole of Tasks 6 and 7 were covered by this report. [Au(adp)]
