Description

Red Cross Garden is a tiny park just south of the Thames in Southwark, a short walk from Borough Market.  The garden was built, together with cottages for  local people, by the social reformer Octavia Hill in 1886. It was refurbished and restored to its original Victorian layout in 2005.
