Paddington Street Gardens South

I went in great weather and it was wonderful and peaceful. Plenty of shade and the sound of birds chirping. Lovely flowers and lots of benches.

A quiet place to eat lunch just off the Marylebone High Street. Plenty of benches around the edge of the park. Planted flower beds at the top end and a children's playground at the bottom. A lovely place when the sun is shining.

The Paddington Street Garden is a great place, not far from Abbey Road and Daunt Books. You can take a rest on the many benches while enjoying the view of beautiful flowers and the pleasant breeze.

Great little park/gardens Giant chess game, table tennis tables (bring bats & ball) sectioned off children's playground. Very clean public toilets Very popular place to eat lunch.

Five year old playing chess with his grandmother. Some illegal moves on both sides, but not as many as those committed by the toddlers intent on putting the taken pieces BACK on the board mid game

This is a beautiful little park, so peaceful and pretty. And the public loos are sparkling clean and well maintained. The attendant is so hard working - he’s doing an excellent job.

Located close to Baker Street in Marylebone is this little public gardens. The garden is actually split in two parts. The northern part is much smaller and not quite as nice. In fact, there are drug dealers operating openly. One even offered me his business card and asked me to call him for a "menu". The souther part is much nice. A pleasant little park with plenty of benches, paved walkways, a playground for young children and the grass is full and well maintained. It'a cute little park in the centre of London and good for a rest after spending a day walking round the area.

My kids favourite park. Really compact and central. Table tennis and floor chess for everyone to enjoy

A beautiful, if small, park near Baker Street station. Very dense with trees and grass, it's quite an amazing postage stamp in the middle of one of the densest parts of London. All sorts of lovely stuff growing here, it felt quite heavenly as a stop with my sandwich and crisps ("chips" in American). According to the signs and the online information, Paddington Street Gardens were formed during the 18th century as an additional burial ground for the old St Marylebone Parish Church that is not far away. The park still has some 80,000 graves present (ew?) and is considered consecrated ground. In 1885 the gardens became a recreational ground which was officially opened by HRH Princess Louise on 6 July 1886. Most of the tombstones have been removed but the mausoleum in the south garden was left because of its exceptionally fine design. There are benches and a playground area for the little one. Outside the park on Paddington Street is a public loo ("toilet" in American) that is quite proud to have won the award "public loo of the year" according to their signage.

My occasional warm weather lunch spot. It is obviously set up for the London folk looking for a quick fix of green and an escape form Baker Street and Marylebone High Street as there are benches around the entire perimeter, and they are always full of suits eating a sandwich and storing their cans of Coke or paper coffee cups on the floor between their feet. The lawn areas are like a disaster area when the sun comes out, bodies strewn everywhere, all of them trying to catch those elusive rays of sun. The rose gardens are very wel tended, the grounds in general are very well looked after and the whole place is a lovely place to come and have a work picnic away form the computer screen
