Sue Godfrey Nature Park, Nature reserve in Deptford, London Borough of Lewisham, England
The reserve contains more than 200 plant species across its rough grassland and scrub areas, creating a natural sanctuary within the urban environment.
Initially opened as Bronze Street Nature Park in 1984, the space received its current name in 1994 to honor local environmental campaigner Sue Godfrey.
The land holds remnants of three large potteries and lime kilns from 1701, with walls constructed from pottery fragments still visible throughout the park.
The nature reserve, situated between Bronze Street and Berthon Street, provides accessible pathways for visitors to observe local wildlife and native flora.
Six different butterfly species inhabit the park alongside grasshoppers and bush-crickets, establishing a diverse ecosystem in central London.
