Abstract
These verses by Philip Yorke II of Erddig (1849–1922) (figure 2) seem an appropriate way to begin what will necessarily be a short synopsis of the story of the garden at Erddig—appropriate, because they contain several instances of the ‘backward look’ that has preoccupied generations of the Yorke family and has been a part of the way their garden has evolved through three hundred years.
