Gardenvisit.com History Homepage

English Baroque gardens were more pragmatic than their continental European counterparts. Many Renaissance continued to be made but money was lavished on new features : 

• avenues  (often undulating & curvy)

• parterres and peacocks

• fountains  and cascades

• canals and pools

• hedges, bosquets and wilderness

• stonework, (seats, sundials , bastions etc)
