Description:
This plan entitled 'Bridgend orchard' is a superbly detailed drawing of an early or mid-18th century orchard. No location is given, but it is unlikely to be in Northern Scotland or the Highlands where orchards tend to require a walled garden. The orchard is a rectangular plot with thick sheltering hedges of thorn with standard cherry and plum on three sides, and a shelter belt of forest trees and plum and the water of the mill leet on the fourth side. A grass path runs up the middle between 8 rows of trees. The gardener has coded the trees into those he considers 'healthy', 'middling', 'not thriving' and 'dying'. Gooseberry bushes and a potato shed are marked. work_description This plan entitled 'Bridgend orchard' is a superbly detailed drawing of an early or mid-18th century orchard.
