Mayow Park, Municipal park in Lewisham, England
The 7-hectare park features mature English oak trees, tennis courts, a bowling green, and multiple pathways across gently undulating terrain.
The park opened in 1878 as Sydenham Recreation Ground on land owned by the Mayow family, becoming Lewisham's second oldest public space after Blackheath.
Friends of Mayow Park organizes community events throughout the year, including Apple Day and Tree Dressing Day to celebrate natural and historical features.
The park facilities include refurbished tennis courts, an outdoor gym, trim trail, children's playground with ziplines, and the Brown and Green Cafe.
Twenty ancient oak trees within the park predate its 1878 establishment, representing Lewisham's most significant collection of mature oaks outside Beckenham Place Park.
