National Trust: Morden Hall Park Free

Step through the gates and discover a piece of tranquil countryside at Morden Hall Park.

Wander through open meadows, tree-lined avenues and wooded riverside spaces.

Listen for the sound of rushing water from the river Wandle which meanders through the park. The wetland area is home to a variety of birds, including ducks, herons and kingfishers.

Stop at the white bridge and admire the restored waterwheel or take in the view of Morden Hall which sits in its own private garden.

The formal Rose Garden is laid out with 50 flower beds and more than 40 varieties of roses.

There’s a natural play area for children, two cafes, a second-hand bookshop and the National Trust’s only garden centre.
