The Story of the Privy Garden at Hampton Court
Description:
Beautifully illustrated in color and B/W. Maps. 34p. Measures 8.25 inches square. Covers the history and reconstruction of the garden. Hampton Court Palace was home to some of England's most famous kings and queens from Henry VIII (1509-47), its first royal resident, to George II (1727-60), its last. The privy, meaning private, garden was created to allow a quiet space for the monarch's exclusive use. Although the gardens had been present during Henry VIII's time, it was William III who instilled his own very definite ideas on the gardens, as reconstructed in the 1990s.
