In 1849, there was a Grand Venetian Carnival, and 60,000 lamps
were advertised.
In October 1853, when the annual license for the Royal Gardens
was applied for, great complaints were made of the nuisance caused
by the bals masqués which lasted from 11 p.m. till 5 or 6 a.m., and
were frequented by many disreputable characters. The license was
renewed on the somewhat easy conditions that the fireworks should
not be let off after eleven, and that the gardens should close at three
in the morning. In 1858, Mr. R. Duffell was the director. Monster
galas were announced, and the gardens were opened on Sundays
for a promenade.
Monday, 25 July, 1859, witnessed the last entertainment at
Vauxhall Gardens. One of the vocalists at the concert then given was
Mr. Russell Grover, who died lately, in April 1896. After the concert
and the equestrian performances in the Rotunda, dancing was
continued till past midnight: the fireworks displayed the device
Farewell for Ever, and Vauxhall was closed.
On 22 August following, the auctioneer ascended his rostrum in
the gardens at noon and announced that the site had been let for
building, and that all the property on the premises must be sold.
Three “deal painted tables with turned legs,” made for the gardens in
1754, went for nine shillings each. The dancing platform realised fifty
guineas, the ballet theatre seventeen guineas, and the orchestra
ninety-nine pounds. The pictures that still remained in the supper
boxes were purchased by Edward Tyrrell Smith, who placed them in
the Banqueting Hall at Cremorne. The whole sale realised about
£800.
The builders soon went to work upon the twelve acres of Vauxhall
Gardens, and in 1864 the church of St. Peter, Vauxhall, erected on
part of the site, was consecrated. Numerous streets of small houses
have for many years completely obliterated all traces of the gardens,
the boundaries of which, it is, however, interesting to trace. The
western boundary is marked by the present Goding Street, and the
eastern by St. Oswald’s Place. Leopold Street and a small portion of
Vauxhall Walk define their northern limit, and Upper Kennington
Lane marks their southern extent. The space within these
boundaries is occupied by Gye Street, Italian Walk, Burnett Street,
Auckland Street, Glynn Street, and part of Tyers Street,[362] and also
by St. Peter’s Church and the Lambeth District School of Art.

As late as 1869 “the Supper Colonnade of Vauxhall” was
advertised to be sold cheap,[363] and with this prosaic detail of our
own time, we must perforce take leave of the pleasure gardens of a
past century.
AUTHORITIES AND VIEWS.
The literary and pictorial matter available for a history of Vauxhall
Gardens is almost inexhaustible and, except in a monograph, it would
be impossible to set forth a detailed list of authorities and views. The
present sketch is primarily based on the materials furnished by an
extensive collection in the writer’s possession, consisting of views,
portraits, songs, bills, and cuttings from newspapers and magazines,
and covering the period 1732–1859. Among many other authorities
that have been consulted, the following may be mentioned:—Pepys’s
Diary: A Sketch of the Spring Garden, Vauxhall (by John Lockman,
1753?); A Description of Vauxhall Gardens, London, S. Hooper, 1762
(Guildhall Library, London); Kearsley’s Stranger’s Guide (1793?); Sale
Catalogues of Vauxhall Gardens, 1818 (Brit. Mus.) and 1841 (W.
Coll.); A Brief Historical and Descriptive Account of the Royal
Gardens, Vauxhall, 1822; The Vauxhall Papers, 1841; the histories of
Lambeth and Surrey; W. H. Husk in Grove’s Dict. of Music, art.
