Gensing Gardens offers a tranquil green space steeped in history, having been officially opened in 1872. Originally known as Gensing Wood, the gardens were designed by the notable duo Messrs Moring and Vernon, alongside contributions from Borough surveyor William Andrews and gardener Mr Palmer. The design features from the era include a carriage drive and an emphasis on sub-tropical plants, adding a unique botanical flair to the area.

Spanning 28,000 square metres, the park is characterised by its flat terrain, wide paths, and an abundance of seating, making it accessible and enjoyable for visitors of all ages and abilities. Key features include a children’s play area, a central open grassy space for relaxation and leisure, and beautifully maintained flower beds that enhance the park’s aesthetic appeal. Notice boards and pathways ensure easy navigation and engagement with the park’s offerings.

Gensing Gardens provides good disabled access from multiple entrances, ensuring it is welcoming to everyone. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful spot to unwind or a safe play area for children, this park is a cherished local spot for leisure and recreation.
