Urban green spaces (UGSs) are critical to ecological sustainability and human well-being, but equitable access remains a key challenge, particularly in high-density cities. While existing studies have predominantly focused on parks, the role of non-park green spaces (NPGSs) has received limited attention. This study examines the spatial equity of NPGSs—an overlooked but essential component of urban green infrastructure in Inner London—using a typological classification informed by previous research, along with multi-threshold accessibility assessment and spatial justice evaluation. We apply GIS-based buffer analysis, decomposed Gini coefficients, and Moran’s I clustering to quantify distributional disparities. The main findings are as follows: (1) five NPGS types are defined and mapped in Inner London: Natural and Protected, Community and Household, Purpose-Specific, Linear, and Underutilized; (2) significant accessibility inequities exist among NPGS types, with Community and Household demonstrating high equity (Gini coefficient < 0.25), while Underutilized exhibit severe deprivation (Gini coefficient > 0.74); (3) spatial clustering analysis reveals a core–periphery differentiation, characterized by persistent low–low clusters in central boroughs and emerging high–high hot spots in southeastern/northwestern boroughs. This study underscores the critical role of NPGS in complementing park-based greening strategies and provides a transferable framework to assess green equity, thereby contributing to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
