More about this scene

Situated just beyond Queen's Park, Wistaston is now a suburb of the town of Crewe. John Gerard, born in Nantwich in 1545, was educated in this village. Later to become a herbalist and surgeon in London, he is famous for a book of herbal remedies in which he was the first to refer to plants by their English rather than Latin names.
