The gardens which have until now always been privately owned and rarely open to the public, are now under the control of a charity formed to oversee the gardens eventually being developed and restored for the benefit of the community. In part of the garden awaiting restoration, you can view an exposed part of the Victorian 'heating' system where hot water was pumped along the retaining walls to provide heat for more 'exotic' fruits of the day! </span></p>
