Lyle Park is truly hidden away, the only access being from Bradfield Road at present seemingly through a building site. There is no hint from the road of what lies within, including these wrought iron gates from the Harland and Wolff shipyard brought here as a reminder of the area's industrial heritage. This is one of only two riverside parks within the Borough of Newham and is by far the oldest.
