β€œIt's a great little park, in particular for those who live in this somewhat closed off corner of Manor Park (boxed in by the A406 and atrocious traffic on Romford Road). The park has quite a few different features (big field, kids play areas, tennis/basketball courts, exercise equipment) but it needs refurbishment as many things have really run down (benches, footpaths, exercise equipment, tennis courts).”

β€œIt's a nice place to relax with kids. Although it is still under construction, it's really beautiful. The playground is advanced and I believe that over time, more features will be added. It’s also friendly for friends and games. Its got a tennis court for adult and kids and some workout equipment on ground.”
