The British and Colonial Printer and Stationer, Vol. 89 : October 27, 1921 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The British and Colonial Printer and Stationer, Vol. 89: October 27, 1921

The outlook from the Nurse's cottage, by the way, is upon the various little gardens at the rear of the Almshouses. An arbour, the gift of the late Hugh Spottiswoode, suggests and invites rest in this garden. The inmates are allowed a plot in this garden, and any plots which are not so allocated are called Vandy plots, for our good old friend Mr. Vandy is the council for most intents and purposes; and to give the plots that name sounds better than to call them by a name of a council. What may be raised on the Vandy plots is distributed between the dwellers as occasion requires.
