please join us in Hospitalfield's Picture Gallery for the book launch of the publication that focuses on Hospitalfield and the significance of the wider landscape.

Without this context, the sea, open fields, ancient heritage and red sand stone cliffs, Hospitalfield would be something very different. This is a publication produced to mark the award of the International Carlo Scarpa Prize for Gardens.

Part inside part outside, our book launch includes a walk around the grounds, led by architect Peter St John, who will point out and tell us about the mushrooms, fungi and mycelium that are evident at this time of year on the site. Peter St John has a great knowledge and can give us lots of information as we turn over leaves and look under hedges.
