Vauxhall Park – 28/03/12
I kinda assumed I’d done this one already being as it’s local and large-ish. Turns out I hadn’t. So, here goes… Vauxhall Park is another one of those fairly eclectic type parks that has a bit of something for everyone. … Continue reading →

Archbishops Park
Check it out! It’s another sarf-of-the-river, lambef walk type tip! (And yes, we actually go up Lambeth Walk to get to this one). To be fair, it’s also incredibly close to St Thomas’ Hospital and not far from Waterloo. So, … Continue reading →
