Botanical Gardens, LE2
The entrance/exit to The Knoll, off Glebe Road. The original Leicester, Leics & Rutland College botanical garden complex (later to become The University of Leicester botanical garden) existed near Victoria Park between 1921-25 and it remained there until 1947 when the demand for space there made a move elsewhere necessary. Four houses (that were all designed by Stockdale Harrison), each with their respective gardens, were gradually purchased - Hastings in 1902, Beaumont in 1904, The Knoll in 1908 and Southmeade in 1928 - in order to provide additional Halls and to facilitate the development of a new Botanical Garden complex.
