Waterloo Millennium Green
Visit this lovely park just a stone’s throw from Waterloo Station, admire the wildflowers in the grassy edges, lay on the lawn, explore the sculptures and follow the woodland trail…. Escape the urban bustle.
A former concrete carpark, Waterloo Green owes its existence to local people who knew they needed somewhere to enjoy the outdoors and nature. Ever since Bankside Open Spaces Trust took over the management of this space in 2014, we’ve worked to ensure that community ethos and involvement are maintained.
Our key priorities are to ensure that local people still take the lead in deciding what happens at the Green, ensuring that the Green stays safe and feels looked after. Local volunteers help with the gardening and implement small improvements. We work to ensure Waterloo Green continues to be cared for into the future.
Waterloo Green – a masterplan
Working with LDA Design, we created a Waterloo Millennium Green Masterplan. The park Steering Group, our local trustees and staff have all contributed to the plan, which sets out a vision for the Green as an accessible park with plenty space to play, relax and forget the stresses of city life.
Any changes that happen on the site now follow this masterplan. We’ve already added new paving and planting, an improved stall area, two new sculptures and the transformed of a large part of the water feature into a more sustainable rain garden. Find out more here.
