Bonnington Square

This is a lovely walk of over an hour though the Kennington area, passing Vauxhall Park and Kennington Park.  The walk passes the Vauxhall City Farm which is a delightful little city farm. Tucked away behind the bustle of Vauxhall, this farm is a lovely spot to take a break.   Vauxhall Park has a play area, and many sports facilities such as basketball, football, netball and tennis.  There is also a cafe with toilets for those wishing to take a break.  Kennington Park also has a popular café, a dog free playground and the nearby Charlie Chaplin adventure playground, which has wheelchair access. The park also contains a nature trail for use by children and schools. Kennington Park also offers a wide range of sports facilities.

  1. The community gardens were locked on the August bank holiday. Nice parks but the instructions around the SE corner of the walk between Vauxhall and Kennington parks were a bit vague, though correcting ourselves wasn’t hard.
