Eltham Park

About

Eltham Park is a residential neighbourhood in southeast London, centred around its large, open green spaces. The area is dominated by the two sections of Eltham Park itself, providing extensive fields and wooded areas for recreation. Housing consists primarily of interwar and post-war semi-detached homes, with some modern infill developments, creating a settled, suburban character.

The area's layout is notably defined by the presence of the A210, which separates the two distinct halves of the park. The western section is more formal with sports grounds, while the eastern portion offers quieter woodland walks. This division by a major road creates a unique local geography where green space is both a central feature and a bisected one.
