Image description

Located in Deptford, in the London Borough of Lewisham on the Thames Path and in the former parish of St Nicholas, Sayes Court once attracted throngs to visit its celebrated garden created by the seventeenth century diarist John Evelyn. Now completely buried beneath Convoys Wharf and the rundown and vandalised Sayes Court Park, the area shows little sign of its former glory, despite having been a key factor in the creation of the National Trust.
