Gillingham Park is beautiful, mature urban park, hugely popular with the local community.

There are hard surfaced walks, a play area, wildlife meadows and lovely mature trees.

The play area includes a slide and swings, equipment for toddlers, a trampoline and see-saw.

Two circular walks with hard surfacing take you past a winter garden and beautiful herbaceous beds and sculpture trail.

Established on land acquired in 1903 and designed by J. Redfern, serves as a cherished public space.

Initially left as open space, part of the park was crafted into an ornamental garden. Despite significant tree losses in the 1987 storm, the original plantings continue to define the park’s character.

Over the years, additional trees such as flowering cherries, holly, magnolia, almond, and catalpa have been introduced. The park’s vibrant borders of shrubs, bulbs, and seasonal flowers add a splash of colour. The mock-Tudor lodge, built in 1904, is currently used by the Council.

The Friends of Gillingham Park are a community group working for the welfare and improvement of our well loved Edwardian heritage park in Medway.
