Maryon Wilson Park, Urban park in Charlton, London.
Within the Royal Borough of Greenwich, Maryon Wilson Park encompasses grasslands, woodlands, and winding paths on sloping terrain near the Thames Barrier.
The land originated as Hanging Woods, named for its steep slopes, and served as a retreat for highwaymen who targeted travelers on nearby routes.
The park maintains an animal enclosure where the Park Ranger Service conducts weekly tours for children to interact with and feed various animals.
Visitors access the park through entrances on Woolwich Road, Charlton Lane, and Thorntree Road, finding tennis courts, basketball facilities, and play areas.
Cox's Mount within the park functioned as a Roman hill fort and later helped ships calibrate their navigation compasses during the 1850s.
