Rock Landscapes: The Pulham Legacy: Rock Gardens, Grottoes, Ferneries, Follies, Fountains and Garden Ornaments

The research, the story and the photos make a great read. The author, Claude Hitching engages you, making you want to come to the UK and visit these wonderful sites! I did! This book is made of quality material.

Fascinating reading. Now I'm beginning to understand why there are so many familiar features in the most magical gardens - they were landscaped designs created by the Pulham company between 1860 and the 1920s - often working with garden designer Thomas Mawson & Son. Why is Monet's Giverney so well known whilst other gardens are forgotten? Ornamental streams with natural looking rock features and lily ponds that have lasted 100 years. Pulham's worked is obvious from Bodnant and Buckingham Palace garden to Battersea Park. Please can someone help me renovate one of their beautiful gardens in Perthshire...

Fantastic book of the outstanding achievements of distant relatives of the Pulham clan (with recorded history goint back to 1480. The outstanding work and achievements recorded in the book are outstanding. Impressive reading - thoroughly recommend it

This book has proved a major source of information for our Great British Grotto Grading scheme. For details go to 'Grotto.Directory' on the web. Congratulations to the author for his detailed research and presentation of the findings.

Well-researched and a captivating read; a talented family of rockery builders who created stunning gardens.

Liked the book very much. Lots of ideas for my own garden, can`t wait to get started in the Spring.
