In 1865 this piece of land was leased from Benjamin Hall to Alexander Brogden for 21 years, to form an ornamental garden. When the lease expired in 1886, Grange Council then leased the land on a yearly basis. In 1894 Grange Council purchased the land. Grange Ornamental Gardens has been developed into a Victorian influenced garden, containing many mature species of trees and shrubs, including a number of rare species.
