 From the available literature, pictorial information, sub-division plans and municipal maps of the Wentworth Estate it can be established that the garden and grounds were most characteristically the curtilage of an estate residence completed in the 1860s and reaching maturity in the 1880s.When the Wentworths returned briefly in 1861–62, many improvements were made to the pleasure grounds.The gothic revival iron verandah was built and fountain installed in the pleasure garden.
