Park Square

Park Square is a garden square in the City of Westminster featuring four symmetrical lawn sections arranged around a central gathering space, with mature trees and planted shrubs throughout. Paved pathways connect these areas, making movement around the space straightforward.

The square was created in the 19th century as part of London's program to establish public green spaces in the expanding city. This development reflected broader urban planning efforts to improve quality of life in dense areas.

People who work nearby use this square for lunch breaks, continuing a long-standing London tradition of gathering outdoors to eat and rest. The green space brings together residents and office workers in a shared public area.

The square is open daily with closing times that vary by season throughout the year. The pathways are suitable for wheelchair access, making it possible for visitors with mobility limitations to explore the space.

The square straddles two administrative districts, sitting at the boundary between the City of Westminster and the London Borough of Camden. This uncommon location shapes its character and administrative arrangements.
