Figure 103 in Hubert Lamb's «Climate History and the Modern World» shows an estimate of the growing season near the upper limit of cultivation in Scotland which mirrors much of the glacial record and demonstrates a steady - but not constant - improvement after a modest peak in the mid 1550's - from the trough of the early 1600's to the present day.
The climate history of Earth during the glacial - interglacial cycles of the last 1 million years provides an essential context for an understanding of current climate changes, including the relations between solar irradiance, greenhouse gas (GHG) forcing, albedo changes and global temperatures.
