Berkeley Square, Grade II listed garden square in Mayfair, England
Berkeley Square is a Grade II listed garden square in Mayfair with London Plane trees dating from 1789. These trees surround paths that connect the four corners of this central urban space.
The square emerged from Berkeley House grounds in 1733, leading to grand properties being built on three sides of the garden area. This development made it one of London's most prestigious residential neighborhoods.
The square became known through the 1940 song 'A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square', performed by artists including Vera Lynn and Frank Sinatra. This piece shaped the place's image in popular culture and made it a symbol of London during wartime.
You can reach Berkeley Square via Green Park and Bond Street Underground stations, with several bus routes stopping near the garden. The space is easy to access and sits centrally in the heart of Mayfair.
A London Plane tree in the southwest corner was designated as a Great Tree of London due to its size and condition. This recognition marks it as one of the city's most notable specimens.
