About

Pimlico Gardens is a 0.6 hectares (1.5 acres) public park in Pimlico, London, England. It is bordered to the north by Grosvenor Road and to the south by the River Thames. In the 19th century the area was a boarding point for boats on the Thames.

Pimlico Gardens

In 1915, the site was detached from St George's Square Gardens, to which it had previously been allied, and designated as a public park. The park contains a statue commemorating William Huskisson, politician and reputedly the world's first railway accident fatality, after he was hit by Stephenson's Rocket in 1830. In 2023, Westminster City Council completed a consultation, as a first stage to the redevelopment of the park.
