Summary

Botanic Gardens taken between 1872 and 1886. A giant urn on a pedestal stands in the centre of surrounding flower beds. George William Francis was appointed superintendent of the garden in 1855. His vision for the gardens can still be seen in the formation of the Main Walk which dissects the gardens from north to south. The photograph shows a rockery, palms, lawns and firs in the distance.
