Lecture éditoriale
The National Trust presents Snowshill through the work and interests of Charles Wade. Architectural and theatrical effects shaped his approach to the property, giving the house an identity that goes beyond its use as a conventional family residence. The arrangement is therefore part of the subject of a visit, rather than a neutral backdrop for individual objects.
The garden continues this approach outdoors. It is divided into rooms and includes the model village known as Wolf's Cove, alongside views over the surrounding Cotswold landscape. Enclosed spaces and outward prospects offer different scales of experience.
Our editorial reading: consider how the house and garden direct attention, frame views and create surprise. The interest is in Wade's constructed environment as much as in any single architectural feature.
