Pelier Park is a small local park in a neighbourhood of mixed high-density housing and industrial car workshops, lying west of the Walworth Road, Southwark. The park is in poor condition, lacks sightlines, interest and stimulation and as a result is underused. It does however benefit from a good stock of mature trees.

Originally the site of a music hall turned cinema, lost during WW2 bombings, the proposals create an active and vibrant focal point for all ages at the centre of the park - infused by memories of the music hall.

The new park layout maximises greenspace, reorientates pathways and reshapes topography to provide better play and recreation, clear views, biodiversity and seasonal interest.
