LOCATION & ACCESS

This is a unique green space in the heart of urban London, lying behind one of the city's busiest transport hubs. Less than ten minutes walk from King's Cross-St. Pancras  station, Camley Street Natural Park contains several habitats on a miniature scale. Managed by London Wildlife Trust, the pond, marsh, grassland, and mixed woodland are squeezed into two acres of land created on former industrial land and sandwiched between Regent's Canal and the railway line complex. I occasionaly visit on my lunch break but now plan to visit more regularly.
