Lorrimore Square, Garden square in Southwark, England.
Lorrimore Square is a green space in Southwark featuring multiple zones for different activities, including a church, playgrounds, and a basketball court. These facilities are contained within a residential area that frames the entire square.
The square's name originated around 1681, when the area was part of a larger common land known as Lattam-more. Over time, this name was shortened and formalized to become Lorrimore.
The square serves as a gathering place where local residents spend time outdoors, watch children play, and interact in the green spaces. This everyday use shapes it as a focal point of neighborhood life.
The square is accessible on foot from nearby transit options and has multiple entry points for easy access. The different areas are clearly organized, making it simple to locate activities of interest.
The square displays a striking mix of older four-story classical buildings on one side and later apartment blocks from the late 1900s on the remaining sides. This architectural contrast tells the story of different building periods that shaped the place.
