The park, made on the site of a power station, is essentially a broad riverside walk which turns upward towards the town centre. It gives elegance to Woolwich but does not seem to attract the visitor numbers one would expect - if there were more facilities in and around the park.

Woolwich Park is now known as Royal Arsenal Gardens. This riverside park successfully combines a number of diverse features into a relatively small space, these include a well used skate/skateboard park, sculpture on both an ecological and historical theme, an ecologically important wildflower meadow planted on artificial banks around a central area of short mown amenity grassland(in an area of deficiency in natural green space), and ample hard landscaping for community festivals. Perhaps of most importance however is the parks location beside the Thames something extremely rare in London where residential development usually takes precedent over public realm.
