The Laboratory building at the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Gardens at Wisley in Surrey is captured in this authentic 1970s colour photograph from 1971. The archival image showcases the grand half-timbered Tudor-style architecture, notable for its complex gables, leaded windows, and prominent decorative brick chimney stacks. In the foreground, a large, formal rectangular canal features a multi-tiered water fountain in mid-operation, with the spray catching the sunlight. Several visitors in period attire, including women in brightly coloured blue and purple dresses, are seen strolling along the paved pathways and through a wooden pergola. The scene is framed by manicured hedges and mature trees under a clear, bright sky. This factual record preserves the classic aesthetic of Wisley’s primary landmark during the early 1970s, documenting the integration of historicist architecture with world-class landscape design.
