Why it's Wildland
3.1A neighbourhood green space with a practical mix of places to pause and play: picnic areas, children’s playgrounds, an adventure-play area and a 333m running track.
Bermondsey Spa Gardens is a useful urban green-space stop rather than a wild or secluded destination. Its appeal lies in combining a place to sit outdoors with play facilities and a running track in the heart of Bermondsey.
