Hello,
Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Sports Facility opened in 2008 following investment from the Big Lottery Fund. The facility, set within the historic Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Park and in view of the Imperial War Museum, provides a range of quality outdoor activities that gives the local community an opportunity to participate and enjoy physical activity in a friendly environment.
How did the park get its name?
Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Park opened in 1934. The land was gifted to the "splendid struggling mothers of Southwark" by Viscount Rothermere in memory of his mother.
The Soviet War Memorial was unveiled in 1999 to commemorate the loss of 27 million citizens of the former Soviet Union in WWII. Also in 1999 the Dalai Lama opened the Tibetan Peace Garden in the park, creating an ideal space for contemplation and reflection. Other features include a small copse, a family orchard, a world garden and an Ice Age Tree trail.
