Description:
The park is 23 hectares (55 acres) in size. The northern section has ornamental planting with winding paths among lawns and scattered trees with flowering cherries lining the main north-south path, to the east of which is the lake, recently restored, with a footbridge over the southern end. Adjacent to the lake are a heather garden and rockery which has poplars to the east, and south of the lake are formal beds, a lime avenue, bowling green and enclosed formal rose garden with pergola. A small menagerie is to the west of the lake, with tennis courts to south-west. The ornamental gardens and north part of the park are divided by a footpath running east west from open grass and sports areas which extend to the south. The River Wandle forms part of the eastern boundary of the park and there is a riverside walk, alongside which are ecological areas, and there is a small wildlife area within the park.
