History
In the 17th century, Dutch potters who had fled religious persecution produced Delftware in the area, which included the Pickleherring Pottery.[1]
On the 1872 1:2500 Ordnance Survey map, the area includes a small disused burial ground - presumably the one the name refers to; an adjacent street called Potters' Fields; and warehouses and other buildings.
The modern park was planned in 1982. [2] It was known as Potters Field (singular) until it was extensively landscaped and reopened in 2007, when the current name was adopted.
