Gasholder No. 8 is the largest of the iconic gasholders that once dominated the skyline at King’s Cross. Originally built in 1883 for the storage of town gas, the intricate wrought-iron structure was painstakingly restored and moved from the opposite bank of the canal to its new home in 2014. Today the gasholder frames a canalside park with a lush circular lawn. A stunning mirror-polished steel colonnade by Bell Phillips Architects adds a contemporary counterpoint to the Victorian structure, reflecting light and views of the surroundings. This is the perfect spot to relax and watch the narrowboats at St Pancras Lock

Wander along the charming canal towpath from Granary Square, and you’ll come across a little park that is big bit different. What Gasholder Park lacks in size though, it more than makes up for in personality.

Beautiful little spot next to the canal. The canal's towpath offers a great walk: views of Kings Cross, Regent's Park (zoo) and the Camden Locks.

The Gasholder Park is a delightful public space created within the constraints of the Grade II listed gasholder in the residential heart of King’s Cross however seamlessly integral to its public realm setting overlooking the Regent’s Canal. It is simplicity at its best, drawing people to the area and offering a relaxing, tranquil setting in a high-density urban environment.
