Description

York Gardens is a small park, adjoining a high rise housing estate, just to the north of Clapham Junction.

Wildlife

Shrubberies on the northern and western margins provide some habitat for common birds and invertebrates, whilst also helping to reduce traffic noise from the nearby road. A spinney of silver birch and poplar trees over low bramble and ivy improves the natural quality of the landscaping.
