Scotland's Lost Gardens by Marilyn Brown

Scotland's Lost Gardens by Marilyn Brown

The product of over 30 years of research, provides a fascinating overview of the development of gardens in Scotland throughout history - a guide to that nation's many lost and disappeared designed landscapes.

'This is a book those of us interested in the historic gardens of Scotland have been longing for.. Lavishly produced and lucidly arranged.' 

* Country Life *

'An enchantingly beautiful book, this is also a fascinating account of vanished sensibilities and styles. Five stars.'

* The Scotsman *

'Brown's lavishly-illustrated book merits conscientious perusal, and succeeds magnificently in refuting the canard that there was little gardening in Scotland before the late 16th century.'

* Historic Gardens Review *

'Each turn of the page of this sumptuous book fires the imagination.'

* Garden Design Journal *

Marilyn Brown has worked as an archaeological investigator with the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland for more than 30 years, specialising in the study of historic gardens through ground and aerial survey across the whole country.
