This beautiful garden is both a city park and an environmental community project. Managed by and for local people, it is an award-winning space where people from all walks of life come together to appreciate and enhance their environment.
Our organic garden comprises a lawn, ponds, rose pergolas, ornamental beds, vegetable plots, seating and a wildlife area. It contains 49 plots including 2 raised beds for disabled gardeners. Tending the garden is a communal effort by garden members and volunteers.
Over the years, this garden has been recognized as a model of excellence. It has received awards such as a level 5 ‘Outstanding’ community garden rating from the Royal Horticultural Society, Gold at the Islington in Bloom, and a special award for best wildlife garden.
