Our Park

Welcome to Nursery Row Park

The park is located in Walworth nestled between Brandon, Stead, Orb Streets and the famous East street market.  It is approximately 1.76 hectares of public green space and includes 2 playground areas, a wildlife meadow and a community orchard.  It is central to the community and forms part of the lungs of the area.

Who are the Friends?

The Friends of Nursery Row Park (FoNRP) is a voluntary community group, open to all, which formed in Autumn 2007. Protecting the park was, and is, its primary goal. They partner with Southwark Council, local tenants’ and residents’ associations and other community groups to protect and enhance the park.  FoNRP organise regular community events every 2-3 months in the park. The group is always keen to meet new people who want to get involved.  Click here for more information.
