PIN Arnold Circus Park

A postage stamp sized park of peace and tranquility

This little park is an ideal destination to just sit and enjoy a good book while admiring the vegetation and listening to the birds around you!

This circle park is located in a very cool area surrounded by lots of little streets that are there to be explored.



History

The Boundary Estate is a housing development, formally opened in 1900, in the East End of London, England. It is situated in the northwestern corner of Bethnal Green in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and on the boundary with Shoreditch, in the London Borough of Hackney.

The estate, constructed in 1890, was one of the earliest social housing schemes built by a local government authority, although Liverpool Corporation had begun building tenement blocks in 1869. It replaced the Friars Mount rookery in the Old Nichol. It was built on top of the demolished rookery, the works were begun by the Metropolitan Board of Works in 1893 and completed by the recently formed London County Council. It was, arguably, the world's first council estate. Soil from the foundations was used to construct a mound in the middle of Arnold Circus at the centre of the development, surmounted by a still-extant bandstand. The estate consists of multi-story brick tenements radiating from the central circus, each of which bears the name of a location along the River Thames.
