Eighteenth century Scottish gardens

606. About the beginning of the eighteenth century, the Earl of Lauderdale is said to have sent plans, sections, and sacks of earth from his domain at Hatton, to London and Wise, in London; and these artists, it is added, formed a plan, and sent down a gardener to superintend its execution. Hatton, in 1805, was a fine old place; though it had long changed its possessor.
