The Pitt-Rivers family own three albums of photographs of the Rushmore estate showing the changes made by Pitt-Rivers from 1880 and taken by Pitt-Rivers' Secretary, Harold St George Gray. Here is a selection of photographs of the Larmer Gardens. We are very grateful to Anthony Pitt-Rivers for loaning these albums to us and allowing us to use the images.

To compare photographs of the gardens as they are today, click here and for an account of the gardens in 2012, click here.
