Illustrated card cover. 230mm x 240mm (9" x 9"). 255pp. Signed by Frank and Margorie Lawley on half title. Frank and Marjorie Lawley have spent over 40 years at Herterton House, a 16th century farmhouse on the Wallington Estate, near Cambo (birthplace of Capability Brown) in Northumberland. When they leased Herterton from the National Trust in 1976, the Lawleys took on a series of derelict farm buildings. This highly original and personal book describes in detail how, with patience and passion, they restored Herterton House and created an exquisite and unique garden. Within its mere acre, the garden at Herterton House provides more visual interest and more interesting plants (plants you can also buy from its small nursery) than many gardens twenty times its size. With photographs by Val Corbett and an introduction by Charles Quest-Ritson. .
