  • Garden and Park Structures Listing Selection Guide Summary
    Garden and Park Structures Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of- selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. This guide looks at buildings and other structures found in gardens, parks and indeed designed landscapes of all types from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century.

  • Shinagawa Historical Museum Commentary Sheet Variegated Green
    Shinagawa Historical Museum Commentary Sheet Variegated Green - Shinagawa Historical Museum Garden - The Shinagawa Historical Museum features a fully landscaped Japanese garden with a lawn at the center, two flowing water features that evoke a mountain stream, the Shotekian tea house and garden on the east side, and a pond and restored pit-dwelling on the west side. The garden offers a beautiful collection of trees and flowers that dazzle for each of the four seasons, including plum, Oshimazakura cherry, Satozakura cherry, dogwood, Japanese black pine, maples, Japanese ternstroemia, mountain Landscape of the garden fire, and Japanese camellia, to name a few, providing a calm and tranquil setting. The pond is filled with coloured carp, and on days with good weather the garden is abuzz with small birds. On rainy days the garden is still and tranquil, while snowy days provide a completely different scene. Exploring the garden during the changing seasons helps visitors to forget about the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. The mossy tea house garden and Shotekian tea house shrouded in trees appear to be from a different time and world. The garden is in complete harmony with Japanese Shotekian (tea house) architectural design aesthetics and represents just another hidden charm that the Shinagawa Historical Museum has to offer. The Aesthetic Values of Edo – The Distinctive Sound of the Suikinkutsu Since ancient times, the people of Japan have enjoyed the sound of temple bells resonating from far away and found joy with the sound of the wind blowing through pine forests. This unique aesthetic value of purely observing small effects and resonating sounds shows that the Japanese people of the past had very delicate and subtle senses.

This essay is of 1970 12 particular interest as very little work has been done 1975 14 on early nineteenth century Chinese horticulture by 1980 16 either Western or Eastern garden historians. The 1985 17 merchant’s gardens of Canton (Guangzhou) were 1990 19 often the only Chinese gardens encountered by 1995 21 Europeans, as most foreigners at the time were 2000 23 forbidden to travel beyond the port city. While these 2005 24 gardens were described in visitors’ diaries, paintings 2010 27 and early photographs, Richard has examined 2015 31 Chinese as well as European sources, to provide a news (continued) 32 conjectural reconstruction of the grandest and most GHS Events Diary 32 famous of Canton’s merchant gardens.
