Catalog for Horticultural Society 39th annual exhibition at Squerryes

Begun in 1872, Westerham Horticultural Society was popular amongst the community who would look forward to the annual summer exhibition each year. It was for many years hosted by the Warde family in Surrey Park at the bottom of Goodley Stock, west of Squerryes Court, where big marquees would be erected to house the displays. Following the first World War the exhibition was downscaled somewhat and would take place in the new St. Mary’s Hall in London Road beside the Library.
