Abstract

In this essay, the author examines the development and the conception of the formal landscape and improved estates in Scotland. Scottish estates were mainly characterised by the gridded landscapes of agricultural improvement, making quite clear that country house estates, like those of Holland, were predominantly economic landscapes but at the same time were strongly informed by a deep knowledge of classical culture.
