Potters Fields Park

About

Potters Fields Park is a small public park situated in the London Borough of Southwark in London, England. The park is located immediately south-west of Tower Bridge and immediately south-east of City Hall, London. It is frequently used for food festivals and other events.

The name originates from the many potters who lived and worked in the area in the 17th and 18th centuries. The land has never been a potter's field (a burial ground for the poor), although there were graveyards in the area.
