Summary

Botanic Gardens photographed approximately between 1872 and 1886. The photograph shows ornamental flower beds shaped in ovals and diamond shapes. Gravel paths, lawns and small shrubs complete the scene. A round pond can be seen in the middle of the main path. This is possibly the Owen Fountain, named after its benefactor, which was installed after reticulated water was supplied to North Terrace in December 1860.
