Sir John McDougall Gardens

Sir John McDougall Gardens is a grassed and wooded area along the River Thames on the Isle of Dogs in London, England.

It covers just over 6 acres (2.4 ha), between the River Thames and Westferry Road.

[1] The park is named after Sir John McDougall, a local member of the London County Council (LCC) in the 1900s.

Sir John McDougall Gardens was opened in 1968, on a site left in ruins by the bombing of Docklands in World War II.

A footbridge across Westferry Road was completed in 1969 to link it directly to the large Barkantine Estate of social housing.
