"The Parks and Gardens of Cornwall" is the most comprehensive survey of the subject for any county in England. Some 440 sites are grouped into districts centred on the principal towns, and arranged to correspond with the Ordnance Survey Landranger maps. The descriptions will interest local and garden historians, and all those who wish to know something of the families, architects and social background, as well as the designers who created the gardens of Cornwall. The survey is richly illustrated with historic prints - many never previously reproduced - including sketches by Prideaux (1716-27); plates from the histories of Borlase (1758) and Gilbert (1820), and from Twycross' exceedingly scarce "Mansions of Cornwall".
