The Gardens of Lincoln's Inn, Central London

Although it is in the heart of London, much of the 11 acres that make up Lincoln’s Inn is actually green space. As well as the parkland of the North Gardens, the oldest of London's four inns of court contains smaller ornamental areas, such as the more intimate Kitchen Garden, and the manicured lawn of New Square. Below the red brick Great Hall, the restored Benchers’ Border features yew topiary cones, and a red, yellow and orange colour scheme.  Surrounded by historic legal buildings, the gardens, which are largely open to the public on weekdays, are also home to some venerable old trees.
