Waterlow Park, Grade II listed park in Highgate, London.

The 26-acre Waterlow Park features ornamental gardens, ponds, and woodlands across multiple levels of landscaped terrain in North London.

Sir Sydney Waterlow established this public space in 1889, dedicating the extensive grounds as a garden for local residents without access to private gardens.

The gardens host regular outdoor performances, art exhibitions, and community events within the preserved Victorian landscape setting throughout the year.

Tennis courts, children's play areas, and walking paths span the grounds, while the on-site café provides refreshments near the central pond.

Three natural spring-fed ponds cascade down the hillside, creating a water feature system that has operated since the park's Victorian inception.

Location: London Borough of Camden

Inception: 1889

GPS coordinates: 51.56709,-0.14650
