The name Plaistow was first recorded in 1414, and is thought to mean 'play place' or a place where people gathered for play. Come and play in Plaistow Park! On the grounds of a former Tudor mansion where the Essex Lodge now stands, you can enjoy being active as you explore the ornamental gardens.
Since its original layout the park has been extended in the north on the former site of a school and houses, and also at the eastern end. This extension provides sports areas and informal grass and trees in the north, and in the east a fenced play area and Playbarn building which runs children's activities.
