The best quiet respite from the bustle of the City. Read the moving stories of everyday heroes from Victorian times to the present enshrined on plaques on the wall.

Lovely hidden garden in the middle of the bustling city - perfect place to eat lunch on a nice day. Check out the wall of sacrifices.

One of my favourite places in London. It's a peaceful little park well hidden from the crowd and with some history to discover.

Once popular with postmen on their lunch break, this park is much higher than the streets around it because it stands on the site of 3 packed medieval burial grounds from nearby churches.

This place is a hidden gem. Peaceful little park. Check out the memorial wall.

See if you can find a guide book that describes this place without using the phrase "hidden gem". Bet you can't.

In Postman’s Park you can find a wall commemorating heroic self sacrifice, for those who would otherwise have no memorial. It was unveiled in 1900.

Very few places, bar war memorials, in this town that the heroic deeds of ordinary men, women and children are remembered.

Alice Ayres plague. If you've seen the film Closer you'll know what I mean!

Что за привычка любой зеленый квадратный метр называть парком?!
