Why it's Wildland

3.1

A named feature in a park better known for grand memorials and statues, the Kensington Gardens bandstand is one of the smaller listed points of interest in the gardens.

The bandstand is a modest stop rather than a destination in its own right. Its appeal is as one detail in a broader wander among Kensington Gardens’ monuments and parkland.
