Brimmington Park in 2008

Brimmington Park is a small Шаблон:Convert park in Peckham, London.[1] It is located on Old Kent Road, Clifton Crescent and Culmore Road, London SE15 2RQ.[1] It is also adjacent to the former Old Kent Road and Hatcham railway station, which closed temporarily in 1917 but which has never been re-opened.[2]

Origins

The park was created in the 1970s on the site of small factories and terraced housing.[1][2]

A Regency-style terrace was built on Clifton Crescent (then called Clifton Grove) in 1847-51 when the area was first developed for housing.[2] That row of housing is extant, and is now Grade II listed.[3] Some of the land south of Clifton Grove remained open land, and to the east of Clifton Grove, running towards the railway line and station, were a series of gardens and a pond. [2] By 1895 the street had been renamed, and the open land built over.[2] The park was established in the 1970s.[2]

Features

The park has a playground (installed in 2008), two small AstroTurf pitches for mini-football, a large MUGA space, and an outdoor gym (installed in 2013).[4] [1] There is a sports centre which is currently (2022) derelict; Southwark Council propose to build in 2022 a new sports centre and to convert the existing pitches to new 3G all-weather pitches and a Toro interactive football facility.[5]

Peckham Town F.C., which plays in the Kent County League, was established in 1982; it was originally called Brimmington Park FC, as this was the location of the nightly kickabouts for the earliest players.[6]

The park has been designated as a Queen Elizabeth II Field since 2013 and is legally protected with Fields in Trust.[1]

Friends

There is a Friends of Brimmington Park organisation, which helps to secure and promote the conservation and protection of the park for the benefit of wildlife and the community.[4] The Friends were established in 1999.[7]
