GRASSHOPPER COTTAGE, ST ANN’S WELL GARDENS

Two photographs of this ancient cottage shortly before it was demolished. Of uncertain age, it was much more than 100 years old and may even have been the contemporary with Wick House, late 18th century. Probably originally used for workers on the Wick Farm, after acquisition by the Corporation it became the Park’s Superintendent’s house and was still inhabited as lately as 1960. Its final use was as a gardener’s store and as it was not worth restoring or preserving it was removed in late 1967. Date of photographs 30 April 1967.
