Cuper's Gardens

In 1643, Thomas Howard, 21st Earl of Arundel bought 3 acres (1.2 ha) of land which he leased to his gardener Abraham Boydell Cuper.

[3] In 1686, 7 acres (2.8 ha) of adjoining land was bought from the Archbishop of Canterbury, William Sancroft, and added to the gardens.

A long landing stage in the river known as Cuper's Bridge acted as a popular entrance for the gardens.

It remained open as an unlicensed tea garden before finally closing in 1760.
