Abstract
William Barron is one of the unsung heroes of British garden design, often overshadowed by other famous horticulturists such as Capability Brown and Humphrey Repton. This text tells the story of an unassuming man who made an everlasting impression on the British landscape. Tamsin Liddle and Peter Robinson explore Barron's humble beginnings, delve into the influences that shaped his work and look at his engineering and horticultural innovations.
