This oasis in the heart of suburbia covers over 50ha (125 acres) of parkland with the River Wandle meandering through. There is an old Snuff Mill, now an environmental centre and there are a variety of bridges traversing the river.
The park has hay meadows, old estate buildings and an impressive rose garden with over 2,000 roses. The workshops house local craftworkers and there is also an independently run garden centre and a city farm.
What's new in 2006: Restored and re-opened Snuff Mill environmental education centre with new features and interpretation. Telephone for details of opening times.
