Gates: Geraldine Mary Harmsworth
Inscription
{On the pier to the north:}
Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Park
Opened 1934
{On the pier to the south:}
For the splendid struggling mothers of Southwark and their children.
"The splendid struggling mothers..." is surely a quote from something, perhaps written by Geraldine Mary at the time the Park was being proposed/opened?
Site: Geraldine Mary Harmsworth (1 memorial)
SE1, Kennington Road, Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Park
The carved lettering have a rather modern feel and the stonework looks newish so we think it likely that this entrance was restored as part of the 75th anniversary clean-up of the park.
