Maryon Park
Maryon Park is an urban public park located in Charlton in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. It is situated on the A206 south of the Thames Barrier. There is access from Woolwich Road, Charlton Lane and Thorntree Road. It is part of the Maryon Wilson Park and Gilbert's Pit Local Nature Reserve. ==History== Charlton sandpits, which were originally part of an area known as Hanging Wood, were presented to the London County Council in 1891 by the Maryon-Wilson family, and one of the pits became Maryon Park.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Greenwich Guide - Charlton )〕 Another pit became Charlton Athletic's football ground, The Valley.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Greenwich Guide - Charlton's Parks )〕 The park was originally wooded and, together with what is now Maryon Wilson Park, was known as Hanging Woods.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Map of Charlton, 1746 | Historic Maps of Greenwich | Ideal Homes )〕 This was a wild wooded area and formed an ideal retreat for highwaymen who robbed travellers on Shooters Hill and Blackheath. Those who were caught were hanged here – hence the name.
