Between 1906 and 1913 a walled garden was built behind the brick garden wall you see today. The Bute family gardeners grew fruit and vegetables for the family here. When the Bute family were at home in Scotland they often ate fruit and vegetables grown in their Cardiff garden. The gardeners would send the fruit and veg on the train!
