1932 - Wannock Gardens, Eastbourne - Seed Border

Wannock was a well known spot since the mid-1800s as far as I can see.  The strawberry gardens there made a pleasant destination when combined with having tea somewhere.  It seems it was a lovely area to visit.  By the early 1900s ads ran for "Charabanc tour for ladies at 2.30 p.m. ; tea at the Old Mill GardensWannock."
