About

Danson Park in the London Borough of Bexley centres on Danson House, a Grade II* listed Georgian mansion that faces the park’s main ornamental lake. Paths run around the water and through the walled garden and rose beds, and a bandstand stands near the lake edge. The layout puts the house and lake at the heart of the site, so views from the main approach lead directly toward the water. Visitors find lawns, seating and places to pause along the waterfront.

Facilities include a children’s play area, sports pitches and marked routes for walking and running, all set inside parkland managed by the local council. The park hosts community events and summer concerts on the lakeside lawns, and the walled garden is used for horticultural displays and seasonal planting. The combination of the listed house, the central lake and the park’s event programme shapes everyday life in the area and provides a clear point of reference for residents and visitors.
