What reading level is Kensington Palace And Gardens book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1729 a sum of money was paid to the Hanger as compensation for the loss of this holding, which would seem to have extended as far west as "Horse Quarter" and "Colt Quarter, " but of course, never formed any part of the adjoining Hyde Park. Another sum, a pen- sion of £18, was paid to Sarah Gray, whose husband was accidentally shot in 1798, by the keepers when they were destroying foxes in the " Deer Harbour" or Paddock.
We have now reached the noblest feature of the Gardens. The Broad Walk i...s edged by four rows of elms, which border a gravelled roadway, sixty feet wide. It descends the hill for more than. Half a mile from Black Lion Gate, on the Bayswater Road, to near the site of the old Cavalry Barracks, now Palace Gate, on the Kensington Road. Many of the trees are of considerable antiquity, and it is possible that some of them are of Queen Caroline's planting. Few elms survive the second century of their existence, and almost every year the Broad Walk or Grand Walk as it was called, sutlers diminution in the gales of winter.
