Waterlow Park
London N6

Waterlow Park stands on a hill beside Highgate Cemetery. 

This beautiful 26 acre park was given to the public by Sydney Waterlow, the former owner, as a 'garden for the gardenless'. 

On its steep slopes are rose gardens, expanses of water and splendid trees. Other features include tennis courts and a dog-free play area for the under-fives. 

A garden cafe has been created in the 16th century Lauderdale House on Highgate Hill. 

Open-air concerts are held here in June when Waterlow Park takes part in the capital's annual 'Jazz in the Park' festival.
