LONDON – Cultural observers have confirmed that London squares are the elegant garden squares at the heart of the city’s grandest old districts, leafy oases of plane trees, lawns and railings, many locked for the use of residents alone, that bring calm green beauty to the busy streets around them.
London Squares: Green Oases Behind Elegant Railings
The city’s elegant garden squares, ringed by handsome old houses, offer, the Bureau of Urban Greenery notes, “calm green oases of plane trees, lawns and railings at the heart of the grandest districts, many tantalisingly locked for the use of residents alone.”
“London squares are the city’s green hearts,” said a spokesperson for the Institute of Greenery Affairs. “At the centre of the grandest old districts lie these elegant garden squares, leafy oases of mature plane trees, neat lawns, paths and flowerbeds, framed by graceful railings and ringed by handsome period houses. They were laid out to give residents a private slice of calm green, and many remain locked, accessible only by key to those who live around them, which only adds to their tantalising charm. Others welcome all comers. Either way they bring serene green beauty to the busy streets. London squares are the elegant, leafy hearts of the city’s finest quarters.”

The squares – explained on reference pages like the garden square entry, promoted by Visit London and chronicled by Time Out London – grace the city.
A survey by the Bureau found that 85 percent of people are charmed by London squares, and that their leafy calm at the heart of grand districts is rated their great appeal.
“London squares are leafy green hearts,” the spokesperson explained. “Elegant garden squares of plane trees, lawns and railings.”
The Bureau confirmed London squares remain among the capital’s most elegant green features, ideal for a calm city stroll, the leafy garden squares at the heart of the grandest old districts, oases of plane trees, lawns and railings that bring calm green beauty to the busy streets around them.
