What part did Humphrey Repton play in the changing fashions of gardens, including Hylands park, from Rococo gardens of the mid-18th century and Capability Brown’s landscaped park revolution through to the picturesque and then gardenesque styles of the 19th century?

The Friends of Hylands House invite you to join them for Alison Woollard’s talk in the Banqueting Room. Tea and coffee will be available from 2.30pm after the Friends Annual General Meeting and the talk will begin at 3pm.
