Bishop’s Park

Bishop’s Park

Bishop’s Park is located in the Fulham area of southwest London, near Fulham Palace and Fulham Football Club. The park opened to the public in 1893 and was established by the London County Council on land belonging to the Church Pastoral Aid Society. It has been designated as a park of unique historic significance and is classified as a Grade II listed heritage site in the UK.

Bishop’s Park encompasses the riverside area along the northern bank of the River Thames, starting from the tree-lined avenue of All Saints Church and extending along the river embankment up to Bishop’s Road. The most historically significant feature in the park is a monument dedicated to the international brigades who lost their lives in the Spanish Civil War. In addition, the park features tennis courts, a bowling green, and other basic recreational facilities. It is home to a variety of flowers, plants, and trees, with tall, majestic old trees providing a great spot for summer shade. Many people enjoy strolling along the Thames embankment in the park—whether as a family outing, with a group of friends, or on a relaxing solo walk—it's a delightful experience.
