A beautiful and well maintained park that caters for all activities from those wanting peace and tranquility, enjoy bird watching at the nature reserve, jogging, hiking and dog walking this place is ideal for everyone. There is also a bridleway for those who enjoy horse riding.

The footpaths are well maintained and there are designated areas for meadow, woodland and riverside habitats. The park covers the area from Sidcup to Footscray all the way to Bexley. Public footpath routes/walks can be followed from these neighbouring towns through the park so an excellent choice for walking clubs.

Over the last 20 years, the park has seen several significant changes. The once derelict stable buildings and garden, where local equestrian events were held when I was a child, have been redeveloped into a luxury mansion with swimming pool and walled garden. And the site of the former Foots Cray Place Manor House has been cleared, the driveway approach, front lawned area and gatehouse have been enhanced. This is of real interest to me as it suggests at the history of the former estate. Sadly the manor house was destroyed by fire and there are few photos in archives.

Whatever our passion for enjoying the outdoors, this is one place that holds interest...

Footscray offers a fabulous outdoor space, for walking, enjoying the river and nature reserve or just to sit and enjoy a picnic. Regularly visit to enjoy a stroll down the river and at the moment (May) through the woods to savour the Bluebells. There have been works along the river below Five Arches to slow the flow of the river to allow sedimentation and to restore some of the habitat for smaller mammals and bank dwellers. The downside is that the river bursts the bank more often flooding the paths adjacent to it. Be aware if walking there after rains. There is a bad water leak by Rectory Road Car Park (September 24). It's been losing litres a minute for three months now, and the field is now a quagmire. Numerous reports to Thames Water have invoked no actions to remedy.
