Merrion Street Gardens, also known as Merrion Gardens of Rest is a city square and gardens in central Leeds, United Kingdom. It is adjacent to St John's Church, the oldest surviving church in the city.[3]

The square is owned by Wade's Charity and was opened to the public in 1932.[2] It is leased to and maintained by Leeds City Council.[4]

Merrion Street Gardens was renovated in 2006, due to vandalism making the park unsuitable for visitors, at a cost of £450,000.[1][2]
