Introduction
The garden still has its central lily pond and the quadrants around the pond are ornamented with a number of yew trees. In the library grounds is a section of the Surrey Iron Railway, which was the first public railway in the world. It was opened in 1803 and closed in 1846; it was horse drawn and used for carrying only freight.
