Oh cool! England is the closest to me at the moment, though :p
Found some sources that claim the species is Hemidactylus mabouia and that they were introduced on purpose for pest control. That is not unlikely, but I can't an official document or statement from The Eden Project describing the species that they introduced on purpose!

(And, sorry for all of these Twitter links that are now hardly accessible without an account ๐ )
I know there is a display with plastic replicas of the domes denziens. I'll have to take a closer look next time as it's a local favourite spot. :) The articles I was poking around at were very generalist and you dug up way more than me.
Hahaha, please report back when you do! ๐
Will do!!
