What were some of the key considerations or requirements that influenced the original design of the gardener’s outbuilding?
Some key considerations that influenced the original design of the gardener’s outbuilding may include the need for ample storage space for tools and supplies, a work area for potting and planting, and potentially a sheltered area for plants during inclement weather. The design would also take into account the materials available, the surrounding landscape, and the desired aesthetic of the garden.
