A range of recreational activities can be enjoyed on a visit to Danson Park, the largest public open space in outer London.
The park, which was landscaped in the style of Capability Brown, is perfect for a relaxing walk, while for active recreation there is rowing, sailing, angling, tennis, bowling and pitch-and-putt in the park. There is also a playground for children and a caf.
The park, which features an ornamental lake, surrounds the 18th century Danson Mansion, designed by Sir Robert Taylor, architect of the Bank of England.
The mansion is currently closed for restoration, but the stable block has already been turned into a restaurant.
Opening details: Open daily
