The overthrow having 'St Martin's Gardens' in wrought-iron lettering. The Pratt Street entrance originally had cast-iron gates with posts surmounted by Greek urns, removed post 1974. This was the site of the original main entrance and St Martin's Chapel. The garden layout had a central mound, and large plane trees on the boundaries, all of which may date from the 1889 layout, including on the boundary to the Almshouses where there was also a clipped privet hedge. A small area with graves is fenced off within railings. The gardens were restored and re-dedicated as a public garden on 10 June 2006 by The Countess of Rosebery.
