From medieval orchards to today’s vibrant ten-acre landscape, the latest exhibition at Lambeth Palace Library brings together items from the Library’s collections and everyday objects to explore how Lambeth Palace Garden (located next door) has grown, changed, and connected people for over 800 years.

Discover the plants once sown, the gardeners who tended them, and the evolving shape of the garden itself — a place of work, sanctuary, and community.
