Museum of Garden History Description
The Museum of Garden History is housed in a mansion on the Thames.

One of the highlights is a replica 17th century formal garden. This is really a musum for serious gardeners and unlikely to overly impress those with little knowledge on the subject, particularly if they have already visited some of the larger gardens in London.

Also at the The Garden Museum lie the tombs of the two John Tradescants who were both gardeners for Charles I. Admiral Bligh (Captain Bligh) of the "Bounty" is also buried on the grounds. Visitors can purchase a variety of plants and seeds.
