Joseph Grimaldi Park
Joseph Grimaldi Park is a public garden located off Pentonville Road in Islington, north London. The former burial grounds for St James’s Episcopal Chapel (formerly known as the Burial Ground of St James’s) are located within the park, which is named after the pantomime clown Joseph Grimaldi, who is buried there.
Following refurbishment in 2010, the park now includes a musical artwork dedicated to Grimaldi and his employer at Sadler’s Wells, Charles Dibdin.〔
==History==
The former burial ground dates to the 18th century. A proprietary chapel on the Pentonville Estate was built in 1787 and four years later became St James’s, a chapel of ease for Clerkenwell parish church. St James’s was given its own parish in 1854. By the late 19th century the grounds had been converted to a public garden and were later extended.〔〔Ben Weinreb and Christopher Hibbert, ''The London Encyclopaedia'', Papermac, 1987, p. 713〕
By the 20th century the church building had become redundant and was demolished in the 1980s to make way for an office building – originally known as Joseph Grimaldi House and now renamed.〔
