Description

Jubilee Country Park is a Local Nature Reserve formed of a large mosaic of ancient woodland, scrub, hedgerows, wildflower meadows and small seasonal ponds. It acts as an important wildlife corridor, connecting with several other green open spaces.

Wildlife

The park's grassland is particularly notable for an abundance of the London notable corky-fruited water-dropwort. Other wildflowers include the notable dyer's greenweed. The ancient woodland is remarkable for its abundant Midland hawthorn, with both common cow-wheat and butcher's-broom at ground level. A good range of common butterflies, including purple hairstreak, can be found on the site.

Facilities

The Jubilee Trail walk runs through the park; a trail leaflet describes points of interest. The Friends of Jubilee Country Park organise informal walks. The park lies on the London LOOP.
