Abstract
`Perpetual Spring' or tempestuous Fall: the greenhouse and the Great Storm of 1703 in the ...
Mark Laird
153 - 173
The paper discusses late-seventeenth- and early-eighteenth-century ideas on the construction of greenhouses, including those of John Evelyn, and contrasts these early efforts to control the environment with the destructive effects of the Great Storm of November 1703.
`Mr Brown Engineer': Lancelot Brown's early work at Grimsthorpe Castle ...
Steffie Shields
174 - 191
The paper presents research findings on Lancelot `Capability' Brown's early engineering work, and puts forward a theory that he was employed at Grimsthorpe, the premier seat in Lincolnshire, before his promotion to Stowe.
Charles Hamilton at Bowood
Michael Symes
206 - 220
The paper argues that the Hon. Charles Hamilton (1704--86) made a far greater contribution than has previously been thought to the eighteenth-century landscape at Bowood, Wiltshire. It also considers a change in Hamilton's garden design style after retirement from his principal achievement of creating the grounds at Painshill, Surrey.

Penelope Hunting
221 - 235
Article on Dr John Coakley Lettsom, who from 1779 onwards built a villa in Camberwell with a landscaped park and established a botanical garden of rare and experimental plants.
Lodge Park and Charles Bridgeman, master of `incomprehensible vastness'
Nicky Smith
236 - 248
Following the discovery of Charles Bridgeman's original plan for the layout of the early-eighteenth-century landscaped park at Lodge Park, Gloucestershire, and analysis of earthworks covering large areas of the park, it has become clear that Bridgeman's plan was never completed. The article discusses the extent to which the park nevertheless reflects aspects of his design.
John Evelyn's Norwich garden
Gillian Darley
249 - 253
Short article on the scheme laid out bye John Evelyn for Henry Howard, later to become the 6th Duke of Norfolk, in Norwich. It consisted of a pleasure garden approached from the river, some distance along the Wensum from the Duke's palace. Although the garden was only recorded in correspondence between Evelyn and his wife and Samuel Tuke, his wife's cousin, and in a couple of contemporary descriptions, the gardens were a noted feature of the city by the 1680s and survived for at least a further fifty years.
