Victoria Gardens in Portland were opened in 1904 to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria, which was in 1897.
The grassed and formal bedding areas are a focal point as you enter the island. A large rockery running across the centre of the gardens is planted with a mixture of shrubs, perennials and bedding plants.
