Beckenham Place Park, Autumn Glow.
theo harpik, youtu.be Situated off Beckenham Hill Road, London Borough of Lewisham. This open parkland is a public golf course with extensive woodland walks along the boundary. The grounds are open to the public and free parking is provided, it is a great place for a walk. The park was acquired by John Cator in 1773 and he quickly restored the mansion to it #39;s former glory. His father in law, Peter Collinson, an early landscape architect and botanist, introduced to the grounds many exotic trees and a lake (now drained). The Cator family became one of the largest landholders in the area, and at one time the Cator estate spread from Shortlands to Sydenham Hill. In the late 19th Century the house was used as a boys school and it then became a sanatorium. Beckenham Place Park is now the home of one of England #39;s largest and busiest public golf courses. The 18 hole golf course meanders through the ancient woodland of the park.From:theo harpikViews:1 0ratingsTime:01:12More inTravel Events
