Garden Rules

A verdant neighborhood oasis, The Boltons Gardens Enclosures is one of the most

coveted garden squares in London. These Garden Rules are intended to keep the gardens safe

for you and everyone in our community so that we can all enjoy

this precious green space for many years to come.
