Tylers Wood

Visitor information

Take a gentle stroll with your dog around this wooded hillside or sit, reflect and enjoy the panoramic views over London

From the top of Tylers grassland hilltop you can see right across Docklands to the City of London, with its distinctive ‘Gherkin’ and on into the West End. It's a real one-of-a-kind view! A lovely outdoor spot away from the city.
