Wander in the Phoenix Garden

The Phoenix Garden is a community garden located in St Giles district of Camden, just behind the Phoenix Theatre. It was designed to give people working in the West End a green retreat and a chance to see some nature.


Started in 1984, it is maintained by volunteers from a registered charitable trust who created the garden on the site of an old car park, which had previously been a Second World War bombsite.

The garden is open every day from 8.30am until dusk and holds special events throughout the year, including an annual agricultural show. For more, visit http://www.phoenixgarden.btck.co.uk/
