More about this scene
The gardens were created in 1846 from the former Newbold Meadows, donated in 1836 by Edward Willes of Newbold Comyn. They were named in tribute to another Leamington benefactor, Dr Henry Jephson. A highly impressive restoration project was carried out between 2000 and 2004 by Warwick District Council, supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.

George Goode who was born at Wappenbury in the 1840s was one of the builders who worked on one of the many re constructions that took place over the years on this church. He was my great grandfather on my father's side of the family. His daughter was Ellen Louisa Goode who married Thomas Pratt. He was once an officer at the Reformatory at Weston under Wetherley. He later became a master baker and became the village baker at Moreton Morrell.
