Penarth, Pier And Italian Gardens c.1940
Photo ref:
P24131
More about this scene
The name 'Italian Gardens' eventually stuck – a handful of others were also applied in the early years. Much of the job of excavating the site had been accomplished by hand, an arduous task necessitated by the close confines of the work and its steep backdrop. The original iron railings seen here skirting the lowest terrace were removed during the Second World War – chains eventually replaced them in 1948.
