Cottered
"Cheynes" Open To The Public
On Sunday last, Mr H. Goode, of Cheynes, kindly threw open his lovely Japanese Gardens to the public, and quite a large number of residents from Cottered and the surrounding district took advantage of the afternoon to view them.
On entering, one found two ladies ready to take anyone on the lake in the two paddle boats, and scores of children and adults must have thoroughly enjoyed their trip on the water, whilst others wandered liesurely about over bridges, pathways, and not to mention the mountain, which quite amused young and old alike when they saw a life-like bear in the cave half-way up; on top of the mountain one got a beautiful effect of the garden below.
Mr and Mrs Goode entertained some of their visitors to gramophone selections while they sat on the seats on the lawn, and when five o'clock came everyone must have been sorry to leave such delightful surroundings.
Many thanks are due to Mr and Mrs Goode for placing their garden open to the public, and for the kindness they showed to all during the afternoon.
