Background
History
In 1687-88 a public footpath was established through the park after the building of the hospital. In 1761 this footpath closed at night, resulting in an extra half a mile for pedestrians to walk around it. Garden Row was built in 1733 facing Burton's Court and by 1794 had seven houses.
