Historic Garden Conservation - restorations

Long borders with focal point

Potential plan, addition of focal points, restored parterre area, Diana sculpture, improved borders



Long border to be redesigned V.S.W style, Wilton inspired focal point


Knole 1719 layer


Knole today

Sketch designs in class this week. I'm adding 3 layers. Layer 1 is adapted from the 1719 Kip and Knyff (the one with the avenues). I want to restore the bowling green with clipped yews, improve the journey around the grade I features by installing focal points at the end of the avenues. Plus there is mention of a statue of Diana half way up the Wilderness, going to bring this back.
