Chunky – where is that view – genuinely I am interested.
Looks like the view down to the Thames from Richmond at a guess (beaten to it!!)
London is not a green city
Other major open spaces in the suburbs include:
* Hampstead Heath, 320 hectares [3]
* Clapham Common, 89 hectares [4]
* Wimbledon Common, about 460 hectares [5]
* Epping Forest, 2,476 hectares [6]
* Trent Park 169 hectares [7]
* Hainault Forest Country Park 136 hectares [8]
* Mitcham Common 182 hectares [9]
* South Norwood Country Park 47 hectares [10]
* Wildspace Conservation Park 645 hectares [11]
* Watling Chase 18,840 hectares [12]
* Thames Chase 9,842 hectares [13]
then the royal parks;
There are today eight parks formally described by this name and they cover almost 2,000 hectares (4,900 acres) of land in Greater London.
* Bushy Park, 445 hectares (1,099 acres) [1]
* The Green Park, 19 hectares (47 acres) [2]
* Greenwich Park, 74 hectares (183 acres) [3]
* Hyde Park, 142 hectares (350 acres) [4]
* Kensington Gardens, 111 hectares (275 acres) [5]
* The Regent’s Park, 166 hectares (410 acres) [6]
* Richmond Park, 955 hectares [7] (2360 acres)
* St. James’s Park, 23 hectares (58 acres) [8]
* Brompton Cemetery, 16.5 hectares [9]
* Victoria Tower Gardens not listed on the Royal Parks web-site but confirmed by themselves as a Royal Park
and then add on all the little parks and recs.
and it is not easy to get out of.
