SUSSEX SQUARE

A good view of the Gardens which were laid out by the botanist, Henry Phillips in 1828. The year of the photograph is not known but is thought to be in the early years of this century. Mowing the large area of grass must have been a tiring job in those days even with a machine pulled by an animal.
