The largest park in the London Borough of Islington is Highbury Fields with tennis courts, football pitch and a well-used children’s play area. It is a calm oasis of almost 30 acres, tucked away behind the exceedingly busy Highbury Corner with some beautiful walks, tennis courts and an award-winning children’s playground. There should be something to please everyone at the borough’s oldest park.
