Armed with my Kickers (worn by kids and teenagers - but I don't care), hat, scarf, massive coat and camera I went out today to capture the last bits of snow in Kennington Park.
Kennington Park is an old park based in South London, and it's over a hundred years old. It was actually there before it became a park... Wikipedia has a better history of it! It's about a 5 minute walk from Kennington Tube Station, and a minutes walk from the Oval Tube Station.
So before the sun went down and before the snow completely melted away today, I took a few snaps of the park... Well, it's a lot of snaps, but just scroll through them!

Kennington Park may not be as big as Burgess Park, but it's a place full of history and to have a good walk around...
