History

St George's Square is a long narrow garden that lies between Grosvenor Road and Lupus Street in Pimlico SW1. At the north end is the Church of St Saviour built in 1864 to the designs of Thomas Cundy the Younger. The gardens themselves were designed by Thomas Cubitt who issued keys to the first residents around the square in 1854.

The garden won it's first Green Flag in 2008. The Management Plan can be viewed by clicking on the highlighted link.
