Inside the Temperate House at Kew Gardens, London
Kew's Temperate House, also by Decimus Burton, is the largest surviving Victorian glasshouse in the world, more than twice the size of the Palm House. It went up in stages, starting around 1860 and only completed at the end of the century. This 2023 view from inside shows the result of the restoration that reopened it in May 2018: fresh white ironwork, a gallery running around the walls and a dense planting of trees, shrubs and tree ferns from the world's temperate regions.
