Oaks Park Railway?

A Memory of Carshalton.

In the Oaks Park in about 1958 I recall seeing a pile of rails and sleepers which appeared to have been from a narrow gauge railway. It was near the big house which was partly demolished by then.

Does anyone remember a railway in the park?

The metal flanged iron rails and square stone sleepers you saw were probably from the horse drawn Surrey Iron Railway circa.1805.
