Tower Gardens Recreation Ground, White Hart Lane Estate (also known as Tower Gardens Garden Suburb)

Introduction

Enclosed by brick walls, Tower Gardens was laid out to a formal design, with perimeter trees and shrubs and a perimeter walk with a balustrade from which curved steps led down to the central grass area. The formal layout was later superseded by more informal landscaping, with a playground at the west end.
