Argyle Square, Garden square in Kings Cross, London, England
The rectangular layout of Argyle Square contains maintained lawns, paved paths, trees, and plants across its 0.35 hectares of green space.
Initially developed in the 1830s on a former waste dump site, Argyle Square takes its name from the Duke of Argyle's landholdings in Kentish Town.
The square includes Grade II-listed buildings numbered from 7 to 47, representing the architectural style of 19th-century London garden squares.
Located near King's Cross St Pancras station, the square offers numerous benches for visitors to rest without additional facilities like cafes or restrooms.
Friends of Argyle Square, established in 2009, manages repairs and improvements while promoting biodiversity in this urban green space.
