This panorama was taken inside the easter 'wing' of the Hivernacle. The building has a central passage off which are two full length glass houses. They make a welcome break from the shade and the easter wing, set out with wooden benches and well planted beds, make for a restful and relaxing place to spend a few minutes away from the glare of the sun.
