Sublime Experience in the Hermitage Wilderness Garden

Date & time: Monday 4th November 2019 at 6.30pm.
Venue: St Andrew’s & St George’s West Church, 13 George Street, Edinburgh EH2 2PA.

Shannon Fraser, a professional archaeologist, formerly of the National Trust for Scotland and now the National Trust’s Curator for Northern Ireland, directed a 15-year research programme at the Hermitage. Driven partly by a substantial building conservation project at Ossian’s Hall, an 18th-century garden pavilion, and partly by remedial works at the Hermitage following damage from a major flood in 2004, the results of this research have considerably expanded our understanding of the design philosophies of the Dukes of Atholl. This is our annual joint lecture with Scotland’s Garden and Landscape Heritage.
