Hatchlands Park was built in 1756-c.1760 by Admiral the Hon Edward Bos-
st
cawen {1711-1761} a younger son of the 1 Viscount Falmouth, and for his
wife Frances. The building and exterior were designed by the architect Stiff
Leadbetter and the interior by Robert Adam {1725-92}.
Set behind the courtyard, lies the Secret Garden which is a secluded and intimate
garden setting. The summer intense light and resulting contrast of light and
shade which alternates the flower border colours has a dynamism. The artist’s
wife, Susan, posed for the composition, lost in the inner world of words and
descriptions.
