Plumstead Gardens
Plumstead Gardens was created after the Second World War, at around the same period as other public gardens in the area, such as Well Hall Pleasaunce and Bostall Gardens. They all share similar architectural features. Prior to this the land was used for allotment gardens.
The park gates retain the crest of the Metropolitan Borough of Woolwich, and it was originally laid out as an ornamental garden with a notable area of hard landscaping comprising a raised terrace at the east end, with an ornate sunken formal garden with central pool, walks and rose beds.
The park used to have a permanent park keeper, but after this ceased to be the case in the early 1990s the park suffered neglect and vandalism. The formal ponds were drained and some of the stonework damaged, and this area was later demolished and infilled.
