Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print is a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image showcases the grandeur of Mr. William Whiteley's orchards and gardens, which were renowned for their beauty and productivity during that era. It was featured as an illustration in Alfred Barnard's book "Orchards and Gardens Ancient and Modern" published in London in 1895. The Butts entrance exudes a sense of timeless elegance, with its ornate gates flanked by meticulously manicured hedges. This snapshot transports us back to a time when agriculture played a vital role in shaping society.
