Walter Fawkes (né Hawksworth) inherited the Farnley estate in 1786 and started to put in place the designed landscape we see today. His son, Walter junior, continued the major remodelling from 1792 for the next twenty years.

Please note the date in the e-bulletin, circulated to members, for the Adel visit was incorrect. A corrected version of the e-bulletin has been uploaded to the newsletter page.

Many thanks to everyone who has attended the Yorkshire Gardens Trust Events through the year, it has been another splendid programme and your support is very much appreciated.
