Podcast: Gardening and Historic Garden Preservation

Turn End is delighted to have been invited to join the 2021 Buckinghamshire History Festival, organised by Buckinghamshire Archives.

Claire de Carle of Buckinghamshire Garden Trust talks with Jackie Hunt, Gardener at Turn End in Haddenham. Claire and Jackie discuss recent research by the Buckinghamshire Garden Trust into mid to late 20th century gardens and designed landscapes in the county and focus on Peter's Aldington's Turn End, the only post-war English Listed house and garden created by the same hand. What other projects in Buckinghamshire have been proposed for recognition and protection? What was architect Peter Aldington's ethos for creating his village houses and garden in Haddenham in the 1960s?  How can we help raise awareness and recognition of post war landscape projects?
