To find Vernon Square Gardens: from the top of Union Street, Ryde, follow Cross Street and into Melville Street. The gardens are on the right hand side.
The Vernon Square Preservation Society was started in 1986 to support the renovation of the Gardens.
The original Preservation Society was renamed in 2017 as the Vernon Square Conservation Society and a company, Vernon Square Conservation Society Limited, was founded to take ownership of the Gardens. The Articles of Association of the company specifically dedicate the Society to the goal of maintaining and improving Vernon Square Gardens in perpetuity as a garden open to the public for everyone to enjoy. We are a not-for-profit organisation where all funds are required to be used solely for this pupose, thereby guaranteeing the future of Vernon Square Gardens.
