West Park
West Park is a historically and ecologically significant landscape situated to the west of the Thong Conservation Area. With origins tracing back to the 11th-12th centuries, it has played an integral role in the agricultural and heritage history of the region. Once part of Cheney’s Farm and later incorporated into the Grade II* designated Cobham Hall Registered Park and Garden, West Park remains a vital link to the past. Home to some of the borough’s oldest veteran oak trees, the site offers a unique blend of natural beauty, heritage, and conservation value.
