Everything about Hackney Parks And Open Spaces totally explained
The
London Borough of Hackney, one of the inner
London boroughs, has 62 parks, gardens and open spaces within its boundaries, totalling 330
ha. These provide the "green lungs" for leisure activities.
Hackney Marshes contain the largest concentration of football pitches in Europe.==Principal open spaces==
Apart from smaller green areas such as sports grounds and smaller gardens, the following are the major open spaces in the Borough:
The
River Lee forms the eastern boundary of the borough. The
towpath is suitable for walking and cyclists. It can be readily accessed from many places, and provides access to
Hackney Marshes and the
Lee Valley Park.
The
Regent's Canal and the man-made
New River also pass through the borough. Towards the east, the Regent's Canal exits the borough into the
London Borough of Tower Hamlets, it then meets the
Hertford Union Canal, which forms the southern boundary of
Victoria Park, running to join the
River Lee Navigation at
Old Ford lock. The Regent canal turns south, and meets the
River Thames at
Limehouse Basin. On the west, the Regents canal passes near
Broadway Market, then into the
London Borough of Islington eventually entering the Islington Tunnel, which isn't accessible to pedestrians, or cyclists.
