Walworth

Picture of a carnaval stall in Burgess Park

The area straddling the Walworth Road is a gateway into the city, with something of interest round every corner – a major London park and lake, a traditional street market, a busy shopping district, the biggest housing estate in Europe, a city farm, a museum and an original Henry Moore sculpture bang in the middle of a council estate.

What's so good about Walworth?

  • Its location, just a short stroll from the heart of London
  • Burgess Park with its fishing lake and multicultural gardens
  • Carnaval del Pueblo, the biggest Latin American festival in Europe
  • East Street market with its fruit and vegetables and its Sarsaparilla carts
  • Its roll call of famous residents from John Ruskin to Charlie Chaplin to Michael Caine
  • Walworth Road, one of the longest shopping streets in London
  • The massive regeneration of the Aylesbury and Heygate estates
