“Bbautiftino Hami'TON CotTRT. — A great improvement was effected to the Lion Gates entrance to 
Hampton Court Palace by the placing, on either side ol' the gates, groups of tall Bay Trees iu large tubs, which have 
been cultivated in pyramid and standard shapes. The Bays are over ten feet in height, and they effectively conceal 
a large area of blank wall, which has always been more or less of an eyesore to the public, besides filling up two empty 
spaces, enclosed by iron railings.” — (Supplied by H. Cannell & Sons.)
