HERTFORDSHIRE GARDENS TRUST SPRING NEWSLETTER 2016 THE ‘CAPABILITY’ BROWN FESTIVAL EDITION 1 From the Chairman: CB300 is finally here. This special newsletter represents the spread and depth of erudition that we are lucky to have amongst our members and it is a captivating picture of Hertfordshire’s landscapes. Once we have read about them the special HGT CB300 committee have mapped out some wonderful walks which allow us to experience these landscapes first hand. Then a series of enticing events throughout the year let us explore key places in more depth. I know you will all find something to enjoy and I want to congratulate those who have contributed and worked so hard to put this together. It is a collaboration of so many, including those who have read pages of type, trudged the footpaths on cold wet days, spent hours bent over maps and books, and owners who have generously let us research and explore. They have shown us all it is an anniversary really worth celebrating. Thank you so much.
