Well-preserved, very well-maintained, and historically interesting. It's ideal for families with children to run around and play. It's a great place to rest, even in the rain. We were very impressed.

It is a joint project with the Agenda Group for Urban Development and Landscape Care. The 85 different plants include both native varieties and foreign ones that are now native to our gardens. The project was financially supported by the environmental lottery BINGO. Many volunteers are involved in planting and caring for the plants.
