Guy Street Park

This small park to the north of Guy Street was formerly a burial ground for Guy's Hospital from the 18th to mid-19th century. It became a public open space from 1899 as Nelson Recreation Ground, managed by the London County Council. In the mid 20th century, under Bermondsey Borough Council, it was known as Kipling Street Park. It acquired its present name in April 2003 when it was refurbished by the present London Borough of Southwark. [Information from a plaque in the park].
