Notice: Sunday 19th May - Community Cultural Celebration. We are really disappointed to let you know that we have had to cancel this event as many of the community groups involved couldn’t find enough volunteers to run their stalls. We have lots of exciting events planned for June please see posters for more information.
A green oasis in the heart of suburbia
A green oasis giving you a taste of a country estate with a glimpse of agricultural and industrial history.
This tranquil former deer park is one of the few remaining estates that lined the River Wandle during its industrial heyday.
The river meanders through the park creating a haven for wildlife while the snuff mills, which generated the park's fortunes, still survive - with the western mill having been renovated into a learning centre.
A much-loved rural idyll, the park lies in a built-up area, and some of the surviving estate buildings are used as workshops by local craftspeople and artisans.
A place to discover
When you step through the gates, you'd be forgiven for imagining yourself to be in the middle of the English countryside. Surrounded by meadows, trees and the gentle sounds of birdsong and running water, the park offers a rare sense of discovery and a chance to get away from it all.

Morden Hall Park is open 365 days a year and has no entrance fee. Gilliat Edward Hatfeild donated his estate to the National Trust, stating that “a fee shall not be charged so that my Morden estate shall be open to the public.” Morden Hall Park, a much loved destination for local people, aims to be a Park at the Heart of the Community.

Due to the success of our bookshop we have moved to larger premises. The bookshop can now be found in the Stable Yard. Pick from a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books at 50p for paperbacks and £1 for hardbacks.
Last year we raised almost £10,000, so come and browse our books and help us raise even more. All funds raised feed back into the care and maintenance of the park.
