Walled Garden 1896 to the present day.

The idea of these two maps above is centered around the existing swimming pool. There are natural springs in the garden, why not take advantage of that and create a 'natural' or bio pool with oxygenating plants to keep the water clear and be at one with nature, no harsh chemicals or constant maintenance required.
 Where the pool is at the moment was a ;Great Greenbottom, mirror pond.Not many gardens can boast that. Restoring it would be a major attraction for the garden.
I'm not too sure about the bottom map, it contradicts everything I've suggested but then it's scope for more modern ideas within the garden at Knole.
