Overview
The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, is a World Heritage Site globally renowned for its history and botanical treasures.
Yet, beneath the serene surface of its iconic glasshouses and ancient groves lies a trove of hidden history, strange sightings, and centuries-old folklore.
This book is a captivating collection that lifts the veil on the darker, spookier side of Kew. It draws on unique accounts gathered from staff, visitors, and forgotten archives to illuminate a shadowy landscape. Readers will encounter phantom highwaymen singing near Brentford Eyot, strange lights flickering near the Marianne North Gallery, and even the unsettling specter of a Roman legion marching through the grounds.
From centuries-old legends and local mythology to genuine ghost stories and bizarre historical oddities, Ghosts, Myths and other Oddities of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew is an essential guide for anyone who has wandered these gardens and sensed that some of the deepest secrets are yet to bloom.
