The project focused on restoring and enhancing the late 19th century layout of Peckham Rye Park, with its formal layout of decorative bedding displays, water features and themed gardens. It also included upgrading facilities for visitors.
The project was wide-ranging and designed to make significant improvements to the park, which is well-used and valued by the local community.
Peckham Rye Park is on the English heritage Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. The park’s layout is made up of a series of themed gardens, enclosed by existing woodland. The project planned to restore these designed gardens, along with the landscape of the park.
