Abstract

It has often been noted that the history of ·a place is recorded in the landscape. People create places to accommodate their particular needs and interests, although physical and socioeconomic conditions influence the kinds of activities that are pursued in any one place at any one time. When a place retains the characteristics of an earlier period, enduring as a significant remnant of our heritage, it merits special recognition and protection as a historic or cultural landscape. This study identifies the Percy Giese Farm as a significant historic landscape worthy of preservation.
