Grosvenor Square, Grade II listed garden square in Mayfair, London.
Grosvenor Square is a tree-lined garden in central Mayfair with open lawns, flowerbeds, and gravel paths running through the space. Inside the grounds are several monuments, including statues and a small terraced area with low hedges.
The garden was created in the 1720s as part of a large building project by the Grosvenor family that turned the area into a favored district for wealthy Londoners. By the mid-20th century the square was redesigned, replacing formal plantings with a more open layout.
Office workers gather on benches during weekday lunchtimes, while residents from nearby buildings walk their dogs along the paths in the morning. Many of the plants were chosen to provide year-round color or evergreen foliage.
Entrances are located on each side of the square and lead directly onto the main paths running through the garden. Visitors can use the benches at any time without needing to register or book in advance.
One of the older plane trees along the south side is estimated to be over 200 years old and ranks among the longest-living trees in central London. Its roots extend beneath the pavement and have been exposed several times during roadworks.
