This guide focuses on parks, squares and gardens in and around central London. Each of the 25 entries consists of a scene-setting historical and descriptive introduction, followed by a guided walk and detailed information on highlights encountered en route. Each entry also has a map, showing, in a second colour, the route of the walk and places of interest, such as plantings, statuary and architectural features. At the back of the book are synopses of 20 parks and gardens associated with those described in the main entries. In addition, there are lists of opening times of museums, houses and gardens.
