Description
Wildlife
The old part of this park has many specimen trees, including oak, deodar cedar, yew, dawn redwood, horse chestnut and red oak. In the grass near the hall is a patch of slender trefoil and not far away on a bank there is much fiddle dock; both are uncommon species in London, indicative of acid grassland.Facilities
