Clissold Park, Victorian urban park in Stoke Newington, England
Clissold Park spans 55.8 acres with two lakes, Beckmere and Runtzmere, featuring sports facilities, playgrounds, and animal enclosures for deer and goats.
The park opened in 1889 on the former estate of Jonathan Hoare, a City of London merchant who built Clissold House in the late eighteenth century.
The Grade II listed Clissold House now functions as a cafe and events venue, hosting community gatherings and celebrations throughout the year.
The park maintains tennis courts, a skatepark bowl, a splash pad operating from June to September, and multiple children's play areas for visitors.
Resident fallow deer have inhabited the park since its early days, with the current non-breeding herd continuing this long-standing tradition.
