Development
The recreation ground opened in 1932, and includes a variety of recreational facilities, including tennis courts and a small theatre. In 1938, the Minister of Transport opened a 'Model Traffic Area', a scaled-down road network where children can use model cars or cycles. The Model Traffic Area was designed to teach children about road traffic in a safe environment.
In 2009, as a result of a public vote, the recreation ground received a £400,000 grant for major refurbishment.
Recognition
In 2013 the park received a Green Flag Award, and won a gold prize in the London in Bloom awards.
