Lordship Recreation Ground

Boston Manor Park

A five star review of the Boston Manor Park in Hounslow is labelled ‘Great Park’ and goes on to say: “Great park for children has around 25 spaces for parking. It does get busy. Around 4 disabled parking spaces. Fee is cheap for parking. There is a caged football bit, children’s play area, a nice cosy cafe,tennis courts, an outdoor gym area and a pond to feed ducks. There is a historic house that is interesting only open certain times so check before you go. Worth a visit”
