OUR BIODIVERSITY

Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park is home to an extraordinary variety of wildlife, from bees and butterflies to bats, fungi, birds and wildflowers. Our mosaic of woodlands, meadows, grasslands and ponds provides vital habitats for species to thrive in the heart of East London. With over 470 beetles, 90 birds, 58 bees and many more species recorded, the Park is one of the borough’s most important green spaces for biodiversity.

Explore our full species lists to see the incredible range of life we support, and learn how we care for the plants and trees that form the backbone of this rich natural environment.

GET INVOLVED!

We are always eager to hear from our visitors about what species they have discovered! Throughout the year we offer opportunities to help us document and identify various species and continue to grow these lists and monitor these important non-human populations.
