Ancient Trees in the Landscape is the outcome of many years
research into the history of trees in Norfolk, and represents the
first detailed, published account of the ancient and traditionally
managed trees of any English county. Yet it is far more than a
regional survey. It is an exploration of how trees can be studied
as part of the landscape. It discusses how accurately trees can be
dated; explains why old trees are found in certain contexts and not
in others; discusses traditional management practices and how these
changed over time; and looks at the various ways in which trees
have been used in parks and gardens. Above all, it considers how
trees were regarded by people in the past, and how this has
affected their survival to the present. Ancient Trees in the
Landscape is a fascinating and original study which sets out a new
agenda in landscape history. It will be essential reading for
countryside managers and conservationists, and for all those
interested in landscape history, arboriculture, and the history of
the English countryside.
