Tower Hamlets and Docklands may sound unlikely areas for beautiful gardens, but take a chance and journey east to explore the sites in the Docklands Area which are open during Open Garden Squares Weekend, 17 & 18 June! You won’t be disappointed – just check the Guidebook or the website to be sure which gardens are open on your chosen day.
Cable Street Community Gardens is not just another allotment site. This is a true community garden – a bountiful site, filled with gorgeous flowers and abundant fruit and vegetables and suffused with an atmosphere of calm and peace. 
You probably can’t imagine a beautiful garden off the Commercial Road, a busy, ugly road in East London, but then you haven’t visited Winterton House Gardens – one of sites in the ‘Hidden Gems’ competition.
Woollon House is a block of flats whose garden has been created by an indomitable lady, with help from her daughter. They deserve all the encouragement and support we can give.
And then treat yourself with a visit to Crossrail Place Roof Garden at Canary Wharf
