What to expect
Postman's Park
A Medieval churchyard, now one of the City’s 120 quiet gardens . Within the Gardens is the Watts memorial to citizens who gave their lives whilst saving others. You can also see a Banana Tree and a Dove Tree. An idyllic haven in the heart of the city.
St. Dunstan In The East
17th century church, partially destroyed in World War Two and recreated as a Hidden Garden. The church spire and some of its walls are preserved as part of the Garden’s features.
Garden at 120
A new Rooftop Garden in the heart of the old City. Everyone goes to the Sky Garden, but few people know about this gorgeous gem, just yards away.. Fab views of the Tower of London and a wonderful vista to the west.
Coram's Fields
We explore several of the gardens in this area between Bloomsbury and St Pancras. Depending on time and peoples’ preferences, we can pop into Calthorpe Community Gardens, St Andrews Gardens, St George’s Gardens, Brunswick Square and Coram’s Fields. Each one has its own origins and history, as well as some quiet corners and pictures plants.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
