A row of mature trees across the centre of the park. Tombs have been left undisturbed in the nearer (eastern) section but cleared from the western section to leave an open space.
St Alfege Park, Greenwich

St Alfege Park was originally two orchards and the old churchyard. The orchards were given to the church in 1802 to be used as a new burial ground. That burial ground is long since closed and the park is now under the management of Greenwich Council.
