Ufford Street Gardens (also known as Chalcroft Meadow, Ufford Street Recreation Ground)

Introduction

By the late-20th-century half the park was laid out as an asphalted playground, the remainder having grass, seats and several mature London plane trees. Having become neglected, in 2008 the park was restored through Heritage Lottery funding with improved play and sports facilities. It was renamed Ufford Street Gardens.
