New gardens for 2009 include King Henry's Walk Garden in Islington, which was once a derelict site that has been transformed by volunteers into a beautiful organic garden, providing an opportunity for local residents to grow their own vegetables, fruit and flowers, and Emery Walker's House, one of a terrace of 17 Georgian houses overlooking the Thames at the west end of Hammersmith's Upper mall. It was the home from 1903 to his death in 1933 of Emery Walker, the great printer and antiquary, who helped his friend and neighbor William Morris to set up the Kelmscott Press. After Walker's death in 1933, his daughter preserved the house as it had been in her father's lifetime. Full of original William Morris wallpapers, textiles and furniture, it is the best-preserved Arts and Crafts interior in Britain.
Among the various participating gardens that are not usually open to the public are Lambeth Palace; Montagu Square in Marylebone; Royal College of Physicians' Medicinal Garden near Regent's Park; Branch Hill Allotments in Hampstead; Garden Barge Square near Tower Bridge; Stanley Crescent in Notting Hill and HM Prisons Holloway; Wandsworth and Wormwood Scrubs.
