Great post - reminded me that you might enjoy a trip way up north sometime to the Forbidden Corner - a collection of mazes and follies.
An amazing post. Apologies, but someone had to.

Seriously, an interesting post for its off-beat subject matter.

Thanks
Yes, truly a-maze-ing! I've been to the Hampton Court maze, but that was ages ago. The other ones I didn't know about, so that's something for my next visit to London.
We 'did' Hampton Court back in the summer of '76, and have a picture of the five of us in the middle. Hmmm, maybe it's a picture of four of us taken by the fifth. Long time since I've seen the photo, longer since we went!

Even back in that drought stricken year the hedges were good and thick.
Ah, mazes! I pop into them thinking they'll be easy, and then promptly get hopelessy lost with an increasing sense of panic as my kids disappear! All in the name of fun!!
Does London have more mazes than any other city in the world? I'll be amazed if there is a city that has more...
look out for Alan Ayckbourn's Mr A's Amazing Maze Plays, then (performed in Scarborough but a possible London transfer).
Thanks to Rupert for pointing out a hedge 'maze' in Queen's Garden, Bromley, round the back of what used to be The Glades shopping centre.

But with two entrances, two paths and no dead ends, it's hardly a challenge.
