    A small remnant of St.George's Fields and developed as a residential square in the late 18th.Century. Simple geometric cross path design with original railings, bedding, shrubs, plants and trees (notably 3 veteran Mulberries) all maintained to a high standard and snuggled by an aggregate of Georgian terraces excepting on the Northern perimeter. Many extensively remodelled. Discretely tucked away behind the Imperial War Museum; evocative, peaceful and certainly worth seeking out.

    Lovely garden situated within a beautiful square just off the St George's Road. This is a conservation area and very well kept. I've attended a few summer parties and most recently the Kings Coronation Party.

    Nice public garden in a well preserved Georgian square. Often these gardens are private to the residents of the neighbouring houses, so it's nice to see one that visitors can make use of. It has some interesting varieties of trees that you don't normally see in London.

    A small park with not much in it. There are lots of trees which is good but the condition of the grass is not great. Also, no benches for people to sit. This park could be alot better than it is now. However it's still great to have it in the middle of busy streets.

    Really lovely little /square garden that's open to the public. Great place to come for some respite from the hustle and bustle of Elephant and Castle.
