Quaker Gardens, Islington (also known as Quaker Garden Bunhill Fields, The Friends Burial Ground, Bunhill Row)

Introduction

The site was eventually laid out as a recreation ground in 1965 within the GLC's Banner Street estate. In one corner is a playground and small enclosed garden of the Quakers' Horticultural Project, which runs horticultural therapy workshops. The garden has impressive mature plane trees and a few monuments. It has been substantially re-landscaped with new planting and seating in recent years.
