A simple park with two medium sized bowls, one about three to four feet deep, the other between five and seven deep. This park doesn’t have any street elements though.

This converted paddling pool nestled under trees in Albany Park behind the leisure centre, is a simple but interesting idea. It has the fundamentals just right, two slightly curved quarter pipes with a pump bump, curved ledge and a straight ledge which doubles as a manual pad.

This is a strange little park nestled at the back of Whittington Park, it consists of a concrete driveway and a rippled concrete bank along one side. I guess from the right angles it could look like a natural street bank though.
Thanks to Kevin Gardner for letting us know about it.

Small pair of concrete bowls near the tennis courts in Finsbury Park, one bowl has a deep and shallow side. The other has coping at one end of the bowl and rounded lips on the others and a small driveway in the middle. (more…)

Muswell Hill skatepark in the North end of Muswell Hill Sports Ground, best accessed from Osier Cresent. Is a nice little concrete plaza style park with couple of hips and flatbanks, and a few different size ledges. A pier seven style manual pad over a small two stair drop. Also handrail and hubba ledge. In the centre are two granite ledges, which is quite rare.

This park is a little unconventional, it is a ripple of concrete bowled out quarters with hubba ledges at each end on a tarmac surface. With a concrete volcano and pump bump. Probably a favourite of BMX riders more than skateboarders, although one section might make a good mini ramp.

Probably one of the smallest skateparks in London, with just a strip of concrete and three ramps. One very mellow quarter pipe, a driveway and a flat bank. It also has some tarmac flat ground, so maybe a few games of S-K-A-T-E are possible if not much else.

This park off the A10 North of the North Circular A406 is an old metal and skatelite on tarmac skatepark. With a mini-ramp, several flatbanks and quarter pipes, and jump boxes in the middle. Then surrounded by flat bars and grind boxes or manual pads. It’s not a bad park however the patchy tarmac surface lets it down greatly.

The Alexandra Palace skatepark is a simple affair tucked away round the back of the palace near the boating lake. It’s an assortment of pre-cast concrete ramps in a slightly out-dated layout. However looks like it could be quite fun.
