    What were those hoopy things for? Croquet for Giants?

    "Keep off the Grass" (the horticultural variety)

    Anti-kangaroo barriers?
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    I think that this is here (Streetview), meaning that it would be the Cactus (nearer bit), Aquatic (middle bit with the finials) and Fern Houses (further taller part) which at least in 2015 were undergoing restoration. There is a sign on the hoardings claiming that the existing Fern House dates from 1966, but it replaced an 1887 building. The Cactus house dates from 1890.

    Reverse view with more anti-kangaroo barriers visible.

Nineteenth-century English House

  • Hans-Bernd Abel said:
    No. 3, Norham Gardens, named "Garford House". Grade II listed. Built in 1866/67, architect: Charles Buckeridge. This photograph shows the house just like it was originally built. Later, in the 1890s it was heavily extended (by about 50%) to the west (right), the entrance was moved to the street side and a large porch was added. The conservatory seen here was demolished, a new one being built at the houses' southeast side. Photographs from the 1960s show a second entrance door, vanished again in the 2000s, thus this house would have had been temporarily subdivided into multiple flats. That's why the brickwork of the front fassade looks a bit cobbled together today. Offered for sale at £ 5.5m in 2017, finally sold in 2022 to Atlantic Institute who refurbished the house as an 8-bedroom fellows residence and named it "Kopanong". The house in the background on the left is No. 5 Norham Gardens (by W. WIlkinson, 1865) which, although later divided into 4 flats, has retained its original character since 150 years. Sources: - T.

    Taken looking over the wall from the People's Garden in Phoenix Park. GeoHive 25" shows the greenhouses.

    From the archive, a Malton which is earlier and in colour!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Per the DIA it may be by James Gandon or may be William Gibson, and opened in 1790. That Malton is from 1794 when it was brand new.
  • O Mac said:
    What became of the front door?
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    A synonym for the Royal Infirmary could be the Royal Pain!
