Knole A1

A1 for presentation tomorrow. I'm focusing on the historical layers. For me, the law of primogeniture has had a huge bearing on Knole and its inhabitants over the centuries. I'm concentrating on 2 women who have suffered (if you can call it that) from this law. Vita Sackville-West and Lady Anne Clifford. My designs are a restoration-in-spirit. A Wilton inspired parterre from Anne Clifford and a V.S.W inspired planting plan (WIP). I want to restore parts of the 1719 Kip and Knyff of Knole, predominantly the bowling green with Sissinghurst inspired tall yew hedges, followed by adding focal points at the end of the avenues to improve the journey. Focal points to be Wilton inspired plus a restoration of the fountain of Diana in the Wilderness.
