Watling Park, Public park in Burnt Oak, London Borough of Barnet, England
The 7.56-hectare park features mown grassland areas, sports facilities, a children's playground, and a rose garden along Burnt Oak Brook.
The park opened in 1931 as part of the Watling Estate development by London County Council, transforming former agricultural land into public space.
The park's name derives from Watling Street, an ancient Roman road that influenced the development of this section of London.
Multiple entrances from Watling Avenue, Orange Hill Road, Fortescue Road, Cressingham Road, Abbots Road, and Colchester Road provide access to the park.
The park contains a tributary of the Silk Stream, with natural undergrowth along its banks supporting local wildlife populations.
