We are delighted to invite you to an evening of short talks exploring the picturesque in Bath and Bristol.
About
The Picturesque is one of Britain’s most distinctive contributions to landscape garden design, but it is difficult to define, almost elusive. How did people try to create their architecture and gardens? And how are Picturesque gardens managed today?
Confirmed speakers include Dr Amy Frost, Senior Curator, Bath Preservation Trust; Alice Palfrey, Head Gardener Prior Park Landscape Garden; Margie Hoffnung, Conservation Officer, The Gardens Trust.
Talk starts at 6.45pm, bar open from 6pm
