Lady Herbert's Garden
Coventry, United Kingdom
Lady Herbert's Garden is a garden in Coventry city centre, named as a memorial to Alfred Herbert's second wife Florence. Construction and initial laying out began in 1930 and the last section was completed in 1939. It is built around several sections of the remains of Coventry city walls, including Swanswell and Cook Street Gates, and bordered by Chantry Place. The site was the former Chantry Orchard. Between 1816 and 1930, the area had become a slum, before being cleared to create the gardens.
