Historic Gardens Foundation Prize 2009

The Historic Gardens Foundation (HGF) has launched a new Prize for the best guidebooks or leaflets about historic parks and gardens.  Any park or garden is eligible in England or Wales, whether managed by a charitable trust, school, college or private owner so long as it is open to visitors even if only once or twice a year. There are three categories for entries:

1. simple leaflets

2. specialist guidebooks to a garden

3. separate sections about the garden in a general guide to a property

The winner of each category will receive £500, and the overall winner will also receive a voucher for £200 for a garden ornament from Haddonstone. The closing date for entries is 15 September.
