This is all that remains of Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, a favourite entertainment venue (1660 – 1859) where you could see and be seen on summer evenings, attending balls or listening to music .
Nice for a spot of lunch overlooking the adjacent City Farm
The Vauxhall pleasure gardens is home to many events in Vauxhall throughout the year. Whether it is a the RVT's gay sports day in the Summer, or a mini Winter Wonderland over Xmas.
Handels famous Musi for the Royal Fireworks was 1st performed here on 21st April 1749, stopping all traaffic on London Bridge , it was a rehearsal for the main fireworks display in Green Park
Now only a very vague memory of the entertaining place this used to be but still a pleasant green space
A quiet space with birds singing in the middle of Vauxhall. A place to go when you want to think!
Always good for people watching . Tamer than it was though.
New project and event space and great vegetarian cafe
Strange they'd use the words "pleasure gardens " in Vauxhall
