Potters Fields Park

Gross. Max. Landscape Architects were appointed by More London Development, London Borough of Southwark and Pool of London Partnership to undertake consultation and develop designs to create a truly exceptional public park at Potters Fields after a competition winning entry. It was envisaged that the park should cater for a wide range of users including residents, workers, tourists and visitors; each with their own needs and expectations. The redesign of Pottersfield Park was part of a wider strategy of public realm improvement projects in the Pool of London Partnership area south of the Thames. Pottersfields forms an important link between the river front and the residential areas along Tooley St. and beyond. The park is an important through route for pedestrians in various directions and destinations. The rich history of the site, such as its former use as churchyard and field for potters have informed the design.
