Memorial Gardens, Kingston

We provided conservation advice on behalf of Kingston Council and Kingston First to improve Memorial Gardens, Kingston-upon-Thames.

Working with local and RHS Gold Medal award winning landscape architects, Davies White Ltd, we advised on the heritage impact of the scheme, which aims to respect the space as a garden of memory and its cultural significance for commemoration and ceremony, whilst improving connectivity, safety, and inclusivity, to ensure the space is welcoming to all residents and visitors.

We produced a rapid assessment of the gardens; researched their historical evolution and significance today and advised on the impacts to the Grade II* war memorial and Kingston Old Town Conservation Area.
