playgrounds in leytonstone / walthamstow

[mia1972]

Hi, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask but I have just moved to leytonstone close to whipps cross and i am trying to find out what playgrounds there are around here. I have a newborn but my friends that would like to visit with toddlers would like to know where we can go with them ...
Any suggestion are welcome !

Hi Mia1972 - welcome to Leytonstone.

Do you know about Brooks City Farm?

Playgrounds are a bit sparse on your side of Leytonstone - though there are quite a few nearer Stratford/Leyton. There's also Henry Reynolds Gardens just off the Green Man Roundabout, just by the Quaker HQ. The 'village green' (ahem) at Wanstead is also very nice. You've also got the London end of Epping Forest by Hollow Ponds - though you might not want to take a newborn and toddlers boating!

Thanks a lot

Hiya, there's Abbotts Park at the bottom of Lyndhurst Drive. Many happy hours playing there as a kid. LloydsPark in Walthamstow and another in Walthamstow village and the nice Valentines Park not too far away in Ilford. Most councils have details on their website if you look up the Waltham Forest one.
