Harmer's gardens would have provided a most beautiful setting for his home;
however the area today is covered with a maze of houses and roads.
2.2 Charles Darwin
A fascinating connection between Harmer and the eminent naturalist Charles
Darwin (1809-1882) came to light when a signed original letter from Darwin to
Harmer was recently discovered in the archives of the Ipswich Museum, Suffolk.
