Carlyle's garden
Thomas Carlyle, Scottish historian and philosopher, lived at 5 Cheyne Row (now renumbered 24) from 1834 until his death in 1881. His wife Jane Welsh described the small enclosed rear garden as "in the worst order, but boasting two vines ... and a walnut tree". The house, still containing most of the Carlyles' possessions, has been open as a museum since 1895 and is now in the care of the National Trust. http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/carlyles-house

The back garden of the Carlyles' house
In 1834 Thomas and Jane Carlyle left Scotland to live in London and here in Cheyne Row they lived for the rest of their lives. Jane died in 1866 and Thomas in 1881. The house and its contents were acquired by a memorial trust in 1895 and were given to the National Trust in 1936.
This is the back garden and more about it can be read here:
