More about this scene
Municipalised now, this reduced park was, in the 16th century, owned by Geoffrey Walkaden, but by 1625 it had passed to Joseph Jackson, a merchant, in whose family it remained until it was removed by marriage. In the early 1800s it passed to the Powys family, and was finally bought by Southgate Council in 1903. As well as the usual statutory facilities, such as tennis courts and a football ground, there is an attractive series of lakes and ponds, as well as Broomfield House with its stableyard, an early 18th-century summer house and a Garden of Remembrance opened in 1929.
