Country Life July 15 2015 considers the great style debate and visits a romantic garden in Herefordshire.


This week in Country Life we consider the great style debate and explore the complex issue of architectural style. Plus we admire sensational staircases, 200 years of Symm and the Soane Museum's revamp.
We also visit the bewitching romantic garden has risen out of the ruins at Wilton Castle in Herefordshire, celebrate the King’s Royal Hussars, one of our most glamorous and successful regiments, explore the wonderful world of newts and we learn to cook with rose petals.
