Publisher's Synopsis
The Care and Conservation of Shared Georgian Gardens by John Byrom is a unique, richly illustrated handbook providing detailed guidance on the long-term management and maintenance of Edinburgh's New Town Gardens. These 47 circus, square, crescent and informal grid-edge gardens form a major component of Edinburgh's Georgian New Town and the City's UNESCO World Heritage Site. Intended specifically for garden management committees, the book has a wider purpose to inform an interested public and academic readership beyond Edinburgh on a subject hitherto unpublished.
