Temporary lawn closures
During the summer, public access to our lawns and gardens is occasionally limited due to private hires.
Kingsland Road Gardens are occasionally roped off for private hires. The income from these events helps support the wider work of the Museum. You can email our team at bookings@museumofthehome.org.uk if you need assistance planning your visit.
Scheduled closures
Unless otherwise noted below, our Gardens Through Time are usually open Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 5pm. Visitors are welcome to enjoy their lunch there - we kindly ask that you leave the gardens as they find them and take any waste away with you.
