SUMMARY:Winter Talk - The Swiss Garden – Restorations of a Regency Gem
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Corinne Price \nThe Swiss Garden was created by Lord Ongley in the 1820s in the “Swiss Picturesque” style and boasts 13 listed buildings and artefacts within its 9-acre grounds. Embellished with Victorian features during the 1870s by Joseph Shuttleworth\, the garden and its buildings sit within the wider landscape of Old Warden Park\, Bedfordshire\, an early 19th century Grade II listed parkland. The garden is a rare and complete example of a late Regency landscape in the UK\, as many of the delicate structures in other gardens dating from this period have not survived.\nThe Swiss Garden has recently been extensively restored thanks to a £2.8 million Heritage Lottery grant\, and as a result was removed from the Heritage at Risk register in 2014.\nCorinne’s talk will cover the garden’s history and current management goals\, highlighting various interventions and embellishments that have been carried out during its lifespan of almost 200 years.\nCorinne is the Garden Heritage & Audience Development Manager for the Shuttleworth Trust’s Swiss Garden. She trained in Cardiff’s parks and green spaces before securing a gardening post with the National Trust in north Wales at a small\, sheltered garden overlooking the sea. A subsequent role as Upper Gardens Manager for English Heritage at Wrest Park in Bedfordshire involved being part of a large-scale garden restoration project and mentoring thirteen garden apprentices over four years. Corinne has managed the Shuttleworth Trust’s Swiss Garden for the last seven years\, is a committee member for Bedfordshire Gardens Trust and in 2018 launched the Bedfordshire Head Gardeners’ Network. She has a BA (Hons) in Art History and is a full member of the Chartered Institute of Horticulture.\ncorinne.price@shuttleworth.org/swiss.garden\nThe Shuttleworth Trust\, Old Warden Aerodrome\, Biggleswade \, Beds SG18 9EP\nhttp://www.shuttleworth.org/swiss-garden\nTicket prices: £5.00 for members\, £8.00 for non-members.\nThe Zoom link will be sent out to attendees in an email 2 days before the talk.\nThe talk can be booked on the Eventbrite link below:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/195794636027

SUMMARY:Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe Study Day at RHS Wisley
DESCRIPTION:Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe was one of the 20th century’s leading landscape architects and we believe that his sensitivity to purpose and the environment are still very relevant to modern town planning and landscape design today.  We are delighted to have three talented and knowledgeable speakers (Annabel Downs\, Kate Harwood and Ed Bennis) talking about their research on three unique designs by Jellicoe.  They will focus on his master plan for Hemel Hempstead New Town and Water Gardens\, the John F Kennedy Memorial at Runnymede and the Cadbury Factory at Moreton.  In addition we will be able to discuss and visit the canal he designed at RHS Wisley. \nAttached please find details of the study day and a booking form.  We do hope you will join us for this exciting programme. \nPlease note that this is a ticketless event but confirmations will be sent out two weeks prior to the event.  Should you have any queries please use the email link provided below. \nDownload Booking Form \n

SUMMARY:Winter Talk - ‘Still a City Beautiful?’ - Kate Harwood
DESCRIPTION:A series of four talks for HGT members and their guests\, to be held on Monday afternoons at 2.30pm. At The Village Hall\, Hall Lane\, Woolmer Green\, SG3 6XA (Near Knebworth) \nTea and coffee will be served from 2.15pm and each talk will cost £5 per person. \nReservation and payment for places on the four talks should be made to Mrs Liz Carlin\, 27 Highoaks Road\, Welwyn Garden City\, AL8 7BJ (Tel: 01707 321210) \nWelwyn Garden City is a fusion of Unwin’s Arts and Crafts ‘healthy living’ town planning and de Soissons’ ‘City Beautiful’ centre with its processional way\, influenced by cities in the United States\, laid out by planners trained in the Paris Ecole de Beaux-Arts manner. As such it is the most successful of the two Garden Cities in England\, a forerunner of the New Towns and much post-war planning. Unfortunately\, it has worked so well that the name ‘Garden – city\, village\, suburb’ has been hijacked by cynical governments dispensing diktats from Whitehall. As there will be a Gardens Trust conference in Welwyn Garden City on the development and future of the town (25 July 2020)\, this talk will concentrate on the town at present and the plans for its future and that of the surrounding hinterland – Howard’s Green Belt – which is being eroded to fill ‘Objectively Assessed Need’ for housing.
