Join Polly Freeman of the Friends of Vauxhall Park on a Vauxhall Society/Vauxhall History guided walk around the Park.

Saturday 21 April 2018, starts 2.30pm prompt

Meet: Parco Café, Vauxhall Park
Lasts about an hour
All welcome, no booking required

No charge, although on-the-spot contribution of £5 in aid of the Friends of Vauxhall Park and Friends of Tate South Lambeth Library is welcomed.

Learn not just about the history of this prize-winning Victorian Park created for the poor, but ask questions about its future. Lambeth Council has been awarded funding from developers to spend on Vauxhall Park. Now ringed by skyscraper flats and student dwellings, is peaceful Vauxhall Park to become a roofless gym, studded with exercise machines and personal trainers?

Note: Friends of Vauxhall Park is holding its AGM at 10.30am on 21 April.
