Views: 266 | Enquiries: 0I am an ex- professional horticulturist/Head Gardener and college lecturer in horticulture and garden history, with an MA in Garden History.
My other interest is medieval history, especially daily life, music and pilgrimage.
I designed and set out the medieval gardens at the Prebendal Manor, Nassington, which was once the biggest fully authentic reproductiono f a medieval garden in Europe. Sadly much of the graden was later removed to make the site a wedding venue.
I have written three books, all published by White Owl Books/Pen and Sword. Death in the Garden, about poisonous plants. An Introduction to Medieval Gardens, Gardens in the Age ofChilvalry. Medieval Plants and their Uses.
