Facilities
- Playground

Canbury Gardens is situated between the River Thames and Lower Ham Road and is within easy walking distance from Kingston town centre.
Canbury Gardens covers an area of 14.5 acres and contains the Boaters Inn public house plus the Kingston Rowing Club and the Sigi Cornish Tennis Club, both of which are privately run. There are also some hard surface tennis courts which are privately leased but open to the public. A qualified LTA coach runs the courts and lessons are available. A Pay and Display machine is in force and works on the same principle as those used in car parks. All players must buy a ticket before using the courts.
The site plays host to the Green Fair event, the Dragon Boat event and other regattas. Band concerts are held at the bandstand during the summer period and we hope to publish an annual programme by April each year.
On site is also a children’s playground which caters for kids between the ages of 3 and 14. All the equipment is very popular.
Buses that run close to this site include the 65.
