A green girdle around London

A green girdle around London. A plan to link the existing parks into one continuous chain of verdure. The scheme is one that the growth of London renders imperatively necessary [says The Sphere]. Aerial view showing how green spaces would be linked: Streatham Common, Tooting Common, Wimbledon Common, Richmond Park, Kew Gardens, Gunnersbury Park, Willesden Green, Highgate Wood, Alexandra Park, Tottenham Marshes, Wanstead Park, Barking Level, Plumstead Marshes, Shooters Hill and Dulwich Park
