Mitcham Gardens and Gardeners of the 18th Century

Mitcham Gardens and Gardeners of the 18th Century

by E N Montague

In Mitcham Gardens the author explores the surprisingly rich history of 18th-century horticulture in Mitcham, manifested by plantations, shrubberies, walled gardens, glasshouses and gravel walks, as local gentlemen vied with each other in this fashionable craze.
