South Norwood Country Park

Nature, Parks, & Gardens • London, England United Kingdom

South Norwood Country Park is a park in South Norwood, close to Elmers End and Birkbeck train stations. Historically the Kent-Surrey border ran through the site, however it is today located wholly in the London Borough of Croydon. It is a 47 hectare green space which opened in 1989. The park is a mix of countryside and parkland, and land formerly used for sewage farms serving the growing London population.

Croydon Sports Arena, the home of Croydon F.C., is on the south-eastern edge of the park. There is also a car park and visitor centre, and a duck pond similar to the one at South Norwood Lake.
