This is a riverside gem and offers the best view of the tower bridge without a lot of tourists compared to other places that offer this view… evenings are the best. You can take a nice walk here and there are plenty of coffee shops and restaurants around.
Beautiful and peaceful park in the centre of London. Perfect for a picnic or a rest with views of Tower Bridge and the City of London. I highly recommend going here, especially at sunset.
Potters Fields Park is a peaceful riverside gem with unbeatable views of Tower Bridge and the Thames. It’s perfect for a quiet break, a scenic stroll, or a picnic with a view. Nestled between Tower Bridge and City Hall, Potters Fields Park offers a rare slice of tranquillity in central London. It’s not a huge park, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in atmosphere. The open lawns and winding paths are ideal for relaxing, and the views of Tower Bridge are postcard-perfect — especially at sunset. What makes this park special is its slightly wild, natural feel. The gardens are designed to be wildlife-friendly, with native plants and seasonal flowers that attract birds and pollinators. There’s a grove of white birch trees and meadows inspired by Dutch designer Piet Oudolf, giving the space a soft, organic vibe that contrasts beautifully with the surrounding architecture. That said, some areas do look a bit unkempt — patches of overgrown grass, tired flower beds, and worn paths that could use a refresh. It doesn’t ruin the experience, but a little more upkeep would go a long way in making the park feel truly cared for. It’s open 24/7, so whether you’re out for a morning jog, a midday breather, or an evening wander, it’s always accessible. The park is also used for occasional events, but most of the time it’s quiet and uncrowded — a great spot to sit with a coffee and watch the boats drift by. Highlights: • Unmatched views of Tower Bridge and the Thames • Wildlife-friendly gardens and seasonal planting • Peaceful atmosphere despite its central location • Close to Borough Market, the Shard, and other attractions If you’re exploring the South Bank or just need a break from the city buzz, Potters Fields Park is a lovely place to pause and take it all in — even if it’s a little rough around the edges.
I liked the park because u can see the river, the bridge, the boats that went past. When it chuckes it down with rain tho the park becomes a big massive puddle lol. Not much shelter to get out of the rain when it rains, No playground for the kids, no toilets either that i could see.
Great fun times at Pokemon Go Road Trip Tour London. A lovely garden with a nice mix of green spaces and lots of benches to sit on for chatting with friends. #pokemongo
Perfect place to take photos of the Tower bridge and a walk
The first named pottery in the Potters Fields Park records is Pickleherring Pottery. It was established in 1618 by Christian Wilhelm; in the 1670s and 1680s, at least two other potteries were established by other people in the same area. On the 1682 William Morgan Map, the area is referred to as "Potts Fields"; the St Olave's Parish Register shows 124 Potters operating in the area between 1618 and 1710. The number was down to 68 between 1710 and 1733.
Beautiful Skyline Great place to just hang around and walk Bathrooms are probably the worst I've seen, but the park overall is pretty clean
This park is stunning, amazing and I just can't get enough of it. The view is superb, I mean it's tower bridge in front of your eyes!!! Went to London for weekend getaway and easily spent both of my days picnic-ing here and chitchatting for hours. It's a perfect place to be in the midst of London business.
Get great views of Tower Bridge, Tower of London and the city. With Shad Thames next to the fields, More London, HMS Belfast and wonderful walk by the river this a great location. The green also provides a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the sights.
