Gravetye is a grade I Registered park and garden which was the home of William Robinson between 1885 and 1935. ACTA was commissioned to assess how Robinson changed the gardens and estate, how much of his landscape survives and the measures necessary to conserve and restore it. The landscape that he created reflected his views on informal and wild gardens and his experiments with plant cultivation and forestry. Using Robinson’s journals and plans it was possible to trace the
sequence of development of the gardens and woodland and in some cases
the survival of individual plants. The management re-commendations made
are being implemented
