The Council has undertaken a Survey of Historic
Gardens and Designed Landscapes in East Dunbartonshire. This was
conducted during 2005 and 2006 by Peter McGowan Associates
(Landscape Architects and Heritage Management
Consultants).
The Report has identified a number of locally important historic
gardens and designed landscapes which provide the setting for
listed buildings, give quality to the landscape of the countryside
and have a significant influence on the fabric of our towns and
villages.
Three sites have been recommended for inclusion in the National
Inventory which can be found at the
Historic Scotland heritage website. The findings will be
included in the Council’s Local Plan in order to ensure that full
attention is given to protecting and enhancing this important
component of East Dunbartonshire’s landscape. Inclusion of the
three recommended sites in the National Inventory will also be
promoted.
