Byegrove Road, LONDON, SW19 2BA

Wandle Park was once the site of Wandlebank House and grounds. The land was purchased by Wimbledon Corporation for a public park and vested in the National Trust, and the park opened in 1907. In 1910 the Mill Pond Garden was added, purchased by public subscription. In 2003 the park was redesigned to create more interest, the main feature being the reopening of the old sinuous course of the River Wandle through the park and the creation of a reed bed. The more recent straightened course of the Wandle alongside Wandle Bank still takes much of the flow but as seen here the flow in the old course is also substantial. This looks downriver. A clearer view of the redesigned river when there was less vegetation can be seen at https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2894734

The dwellings in this road are mainly flats whose prices have greatly increased in the last few years.
