The Bonnington Square Pleasure Garden has transformed from a bomb site into a peaceful pocket park, serving as a testament to community resilience and urban renewal.
After extensive damage during WWII, local residents and squatters turned a neglected area into a vibrant park, showcasing the power of cooperation and local activism.
This pocket park reflects a unique history involving community struggles, squatters' rights, and collaborative efforts, leading to its successful transformation over the past 30 years.
From a proposed housing block for railway workers to a conserved pocket park, the journey of Bonnington Square illustrates significant urban changes and community ownership.
