The excellently-named Hilly Fields is a park situated between Brockley and Ladywell in the London Borough of Lewisham. It's basically a big open green space on a hill - although the grass and trees are kept neat, it doesn't have formal flowerbeds or anything like that.
Facilities include a children's playground, tennis courts, and a picnic area. There may also be public toilets, but we've not verified this yet.
As the name suggests, it's on a hill, so it has good views of the surrounding area. A farmers market is held here on the 2nd Saturday of each month.
