About this event

Join Joy Bryan, daughter of Mr Arthur Newling Swain for a guided walk and talk through Swain Gardens. Swain Gardens is an outstanding example of an extensive garden and is listed as a significant local heritage item. The Gardens are the creation of the prominent Sydney Bookseller Arthur Newling (Mick) Swain. In 1960s Mr Swain discovered that approximately 5 acres of land adjoining his home had been sold to a developer. To save the area he purchased the entire development. Come along and hear the story of how the garden grew to become what it is today. Please meet at the entrance to Swain Gardens. Bookings are essential.
