Inspiration for the modern gardener or smallholder from Britain's
great country estate and their kitchens gardens. This practical
guide gives a fascinating glimpse over the kitchen garden wall and
into the orchards, vegetable beds, fishponds, vineyards and
brewhouses through the centuries. For anyone wishing to grow their
own and become more self-sufficient, there is much to learn from
traditional gardening techniques, whether you have an urban
allotment or a balcony. Britain's great estates and country house
gardens offer a wealth of inspiration to the modern gardener. From
traditional walled kitchen gardens and their - sometimes surprising
- fruit and vegetables, to keeping bees, chickens or even
livestock, tried and tested methods have been used in kitchen
garden estates since medieval times and have much to teach anyone
who wishes to make their own outdoor space a model of
self-sufficiency. Covering fruit and vegetables, herbs, orchards,
beekeeping, fish ponds, dovecotes and poultry, dairy and the
farmyard, the deer park and game, hops and vineyards, there is
something for everyone, whether you have acres of land, an
allotment or are simply growing herbs on your windowsill.
