History of British Gardening: 2 12听May听2004
18th century: a garden to call your own听

Nowadays there's the sense that anyone can aspire to a garden, even if it's only a window box or a pot of basil in the kitchen. At the beginning of the 18th century this was a new phenomenon. Gradually city dwellers began to realise that it wasn't just their country cousins who could have a patch of green to call their own.

In the second part of our series on the History of British Gardening, Jenny Uglow shows Katy Hickman how this period is reflected in her own garden.

A Little History of British Gardening by Jenny Uglow, Chatto and Windus, ISBN 0 701 169281
