The Small Zoo

A Memory of Polegate.

I too remember these gardens as a small child in the 1950s. I loved the wallabies, and my special treat was the water otter.

How I laughed - there was a pen with a small pond. There was a chain that hung over the pond, and a notice that said to see the water otter, please pull the chain.....when said chain was pulled, the water otter appeared! It was a rusty old kettle full of holes - hence the name water 'otter (we loved to drop our "h"s !!
