We must thank Tim for starting this thread..and for the tongue in cheek frivolity about the gate opening. As Neil from distant Australia said this gate was near the site of a gem of a place called Little Syon House...which, according to Neil was damaged (or destroyed?) at the Battle of Brentford. Tim has sent me a great Report of the Gate's Opening Event..but more of that later ..when the pictures appear ..from somewhere! However, it seems that Simon xxxx ,a gardener at Syon Park has done lots of research ..much of which appears on a Museum of London webpage as follows: (Copy and Paste) http://www.mymuseumoflondon.org.uk/blogs/blog/syon-park-excavation-%E2%80%93-the-gardener%E2%80%99s-tale-how-%E2%80%98little-syon%E2%80%99-was-re-discovered/ |
