Why it's Wildland

5.2

A City of London garden occupying a historic circus: Historic England lists Finsbury Circus as a Grade II park and garden.

Its heritage designation and position in the City’s dense urban setting give this small green space more character than an ordinary pocket park. It is best approached as a brief pause within a wider City visit, rather than a destination for a full day.
