Uncoloured postcard showing a view in the Central Gardens, Bournemouth. The area of Bournemouth now occupied by the Central Gardens began to be developed as a residential area in the 1840s, and as a public pleasure ground from 1859; this comprised the upper and middle gardens. In 1871 Philip Henry Tree won a competition to design the lower gardens, which were augmented in the 1920s with the addition of the Pavilion and its rock garden at the southern end, and the war memorial and rose garden. Invalids' Walk was renamed Pine Walk in 1917
