Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park is one of the magnificent seven. It has fewer ornate gravestones than the other cemeteries. It is still an interesting walk as a peaceful woodland has grown around the graves. There are lots of paths wandering off around the site and plenty of benches on which to sit and enjoy the peace.
Great park set in what was originally Bow cemetery operating 1841 to 1960s when it was converted into park. Graves are still in place throughout the park with gravel paths around the perimeter and some though the park. Plenty of trees with the graves mixed in, I guess much of the damage comes from WW2 bombing and was one of the reasons the cemetery was closed. Park is best reached from Bow Church or Bow Road stations and short 5 minute walk from there. I was really surprised to find this park, although I live only 4 miles away I was not aware of its existence but is another great piece of London history. Dog-friendliness: Should be good for dogs and saw people walking dogs during my visit.
My favourite place in London to go, a real gem in the middle of busy east London. Summary: dog friendly, family friendly, no toilets. A quiet place about 5 minutes from Mile End or Bow Road. Very dog friendly, family friendly, with main gravel paths circling the park but smaller dirt paths to explore in between. Plenty of open spaces amongst the trees, and lots of surprises on the way; wooden seating areas tucked amongst the trees, tree stumps, wooden ‘huts’, wildlife galore, cute dogs. Oh, and plenty of gravestones! The gravestones line the paths but it doesn’t feel eerie; strangely peaceful, and a great place for a summer amble or a winter dog walk. Absolutely brilliant for connecting with dog owners. Plenty of dog poo bins and benches and I’ve never not found somewhere to sit. Very little litter too. Events held here often; The summer festival is fab and there are frequent local history tours. The Friends of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park do a phenomenal job looking after the park and showcasing wildlife and nature trails, and putting on activities on a regular basis. Do note in case you are caught short: no public toilets.
Stunning! A scheduled spot behind some estates that’s filled with life even tho it’s a cemetery . Plant life is great, birds and other critters. Some very interesting graves and the condition of them is interesting too. The people who look after it are lovely too and they are very passionate about it. You can also volunteer. Great fresh air Amongst the dense trees and not too many people getting drunk/doing drugs
A very nice place to hide out,walk,breath and check out the beautiful energy here.Lots of wildness,birds and big healthy tree's and bushes.I felt so relaxed just walking through and sitting on my own.A great place to stop off.
My secret garden. I often come for a walk since I found this place. You can see wild flowers everywhere, winding paths, full of scenery, birds makes musical sound... peaceful, just love it.
Gorgeous little gem in East London! It was so peaceful and green there that we almost forgot we were in London. Lots of birds, wildflowers and wild garlic turn it into a must-visit in spring. Put your adventure hat on and explore the plentiful winding paths. Will definitely be visiting again!
Excellent park with great coffee by the way from Thursday to Sunday
Love this place! It has wild garlic. My second favourite cemetery after the one in Stoke Newington. Less busy also.
One of the “magnificent seven” but lacking some magnificence now. Still worth the visit and a good long walk around!
