Opening hours

Monday to Sunday

10am–5pm

The Kingsland Road Gardens are a place to relax during your visit. You can picnic, or just enjoy green space in the heart of the crowded city. The gardens are shaded by plane trees, with a backdrop of 300-year-old Grade-I listed almshouses.

The gardens are step-free with plenty of park benches for you to sit.

You are welcome to use the gardens for a picnic, but please remember to use the bins provided or take your rubbish home with you.

We occasionally close the gardens for maintenance, during high winds or for private events. Our venue hire supports the work of the museum.
