Title
Buccleuch Gardens in Petersham Road
Description
General view of part of Buccleuch Gardens, which lies to the west of Petersham Road, Richmond upon Thames, with views down to the River Thames. There are three stone arch structures covered in ivy and the base of a finial can be seen. These grotto-like structures within the gardens formed part of the eighteenth-century Buccleuch House estate. The brick boundary wall above borders the Petersham Road. One of the arches gives underground access to Terrace Gardens on the opposite side of Petersham Road. To the right, out of view, is a gated archway called Grotto Gate, which runs under Petersham Road. The gardens were opened to the public in May 1887 together with the Terrace Gardens on the opposite side of Petersham Road. Buccleuch House was demolished in the 1930s. The gardens are Grade II listed, listing number 1001551. They lie within the Richmond Hill Conservation Area.
