Morning!

Thought you might like to start the week with news of a research-harnessing project.

In 2012 The Garden History Society launched a project to compile a reference list of Conservation Management Plans and related research for historic designed landscapes. This was made possible with sponsorship and support from English Heritage.

Over the following year, the GHS called for details of CMPs from garden historians, landscape architecture practices, County Gardens Trusts, national heritage organisations, local authorities and individual properties.

We are grateful to have met with a tremendous response, and the information received has now been collated into a list of some 1000 entries.

The Garden History Society list of Conservation Management Plans is now available at www.parksandgardens.org<http://www.parksandgardens.org/further-reading/conservation-and-restoration/712-the-garden-history-society-s-list-of-conservation-management-plans>

The published list is not intended to be a definitive catalogue of all CMPs relating to historic designed landscapes but it is hoped entries will be added in future, growing into a comprehensive reference.
I hope that you will take a look at the list and that you find it useful. Feedback welcome!

We continue to update the list and hope to publish a new edition in early summer, so do please consider sending details of any CMPs you may be aware of.  Equally, there are many gaps within entries and any bit of information you have to help fill these would be very welcome.
Details we are ideally seeking are:

 *   Site name and location (including county)
 *   EH Register grade, if applicable
 *   Author/Consultants
 *   Date
 *   Title
 *   Purpose (e.g. Heritage Lottery Fund, Environmental Stewardship, English Heritage, Task Force Trees, planning application etc)
 *   Status e.g. draft, final
 *   Where to find a reference copy (preferably a public record office or library) and/or a web link

With best wishes
