The northern boundary of a large tract of park and playing fields surrounded by suburban housing. The unusual name comes from Dr. Henry Godolphin, 1648 - 1733, who was provost of Eton College and Dean of St Paul's Cathedral. He lived in Baylis House just south of here, the grounds of which are now part of this park.
