Gazetteer

Claude Hitching has now written lavishly illustrated articles on more than 100 gardens, parks and features created by James Pulham and Son.   60 of these have been published in his ‘Site of the Month’ series on this website, and these are indicated in the index below by their month of publication.   The rest are discussed in his book, ‘Rock Landscapes: The Pulham Legacy’, so the links in that list only contain brief summaries of the relevant Chapters, which are identified by the book’s Chapter number.   A listing of all the Chapters in the book is also contained in the ‘CONTENTS’ page of this website.

The following alphabetical cross-index provides direct links to all these articles, so that, for example, Belle Vue Park in Newport can be found under both ‘Belle Vue Park’ (the actual site name in italics) and ‘Newport’ (the town).
