Breakspears Mews Community Garden is a shared green space that has been planned, designed, built and maintained by some community members for the use and enjoyment of all Brockley’s community. We grow vegetables, herbs, fruits and flowers communally.

The Garden has developed over the last three years, after local residents came to a Brockley Society AGM wanting some action on the Mews. Dumped rubbish and anti-social businesses in the mews had been a problem for over 20 years, but determined action by volunteers and the assistance of many agencies in the council and elsewhere mean we now have a resource for community enjoyment.

The Annual General Meeting for 2016 and a Visitor’s Day took place on Saturday April 9th. But we welcome new volunteers, both young and old, at any time!

Visit the Breakspears Mews Community Garden website here, to find out all about what is being grown and how you can get involved.

Sessions tend to run on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and Sundays alternating between the morning and afternoon. Occasionally they are run on Saturdays.

Location: Breakspears Mews, Ashby Road, SE4 1UW or rear of
 St Peter’s Court,
 29-31 Wickham Road, SE4 1NE
