Free and Open Spaces in London

Page history last edited by helen keegan 1 yr ago

This is just a list of free and open spaces in London, places where smallish groups might congregate to do something, like talk, understand things better, make plans, organise other things.

 

Please add your favourite such places - the constraints are that they should be open to the public with no entrance fee. Err... and usable as a gathering, organising space.

 

Please also add detail of particularly useful parts (speakers corner in Hyde Park for example) and if this inspires you to do something else, please leave a note pointing to it. My initial categorisation might also be a bit rubbish - if there's a better way without making things too complicated, feel free to tinker.
