Hoxton Square, Garden square in Shoreditch, United Kingdom

Hoxton Square features a central green space surrounded by Victorian buildings that house restaurants, offices, and entertainment venues along its perimeter.

The square was established in 1683 by Samuel Blewitt and Robert Hackshaw, who leased the land from the Austen family to create a residential development.

The area transformed into a national arts center during the 1990s, with numerous galleries and creative spaces establishing their presence around the square.

The garden square maintains regular opening hours, prohibits barbecues, requires dogs to be leashed, and offers easy access via multiple bus routes.

A bronze sculpture titled 'Holding Hands' by local artist STIK stands in the square since 2020, raising funds for community support initiatives.
