Walmer House is a single tower housing block built in the early 1960s. It has 44 flats arranged over 12 storeys, and is 34 metres high.

Edmonton Urban District Council acquired 37 acres of land in order to provide recreational facilities for the growing population of the area as it became increasingly built up. The site was previously used for brickworks, which was a major local industry until the 1970s. Many of the surrounding houses were probably built from local bricks. Jubilee Park was planned to commemorate King George V's Silver Jubilee in 1935 but in the event the park did not open until 1939, after the King's death.

Viewed from the Bury Street road bridge with the houses in Chichester Road on the right and those in Croyland Road on the left.

The nine acre site was purchased by Edmonton Borough Council with the help of a grant of £2,000 from King George's Fields Foundation, from which the playing field gets its name. The Foundation was set up in 1936 following the King's death in order to provide a living memorial to him through funding playing fields for young people. As can be seen from the photograph it is rather featureless. This view is from Delhi Road, while Great Cambridge Road (the A10) is on the far side where the embankment and line of lamp posts can be seen just to the right of the tree.

This view is from Delhi Road looking through what must have been the formal entrance, although this is now firmly padlocked. In any case the main playing field can be accessed further along Delhi Road over a low fence - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5314066
