Colville Square Gardens
About Colville Square Gardens
Colville Square Gardens is a small London square with flowers, shrubs and a small playground for young children.
The park opens from 7.30am until dusk. Closing times are shown at every entrance. Some gates may close up to 20 minutes before the advertised closing time.
Help shape the new Colville Square Playground
Colville Square Playground is a popular play area for children under six. It is next to Colville Square, close to Portobello Road in North Kensington.
The playground has toddler swings, a basket swing, a wooden play house, a see-saw, a roundabout, a slide and climbing frame, all within timber fencing.
Much of the play equipment and safety surfacing is now at the end of its life and needs replacing. We want your views and ideas to help us design a new playground for local children.
Share your views on our consultation page. Consultation starts on Monday 8 September to Sunday 19 October 2025.

During the 1960s, locals campaigned to have this area made into a children's play area. The Royal Borough purchased the square to complete the work.
