词条 | Ravensbury Park |
释义 |
The park was part of the medieval Ravensbury Manor, which dated back to the thirteenth century. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the site was the location of a calico mill and pleasure gardens. In 1929 Mitcham, Merton and Morden Councils purchased part of the former gardens and opened the site as Ravensbury Park on 10 May 1930. Some of the trees date back two hundred years.[5] Part of the park was later converted to a nature reserve, including a riverside walk along the Wandle. It has a range of wetland birds, extensive woodland and a mixture of wildlife habitats.[1] There is access from Morden Road, Bishopsford Road and Wandle Road.[1] {{commons category|Ravensbury Park}}References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.lnr.naturalengland.org.uk/Special/lnr/lnr_details.asp?C=0&N=ravensbury&ID=1408 |title= Ravensbury Park|series=Local Nature Reserves|publisher=Natural England| date = 6 March 2013 |accessdate= 27 March 2014}} {{Local Nature Reserves in Greater London}}{{coord|51.397 | -0.180|type:landmark_region:GB-BNE|display=title}}2. ^{{cite web|url= http://magic.defra.gov.uk/MagicMap.aspx?startTopic=Designations&activelayer=lnrIndex&query=REF_CODE%3D%271421578%27|title=Map of Ravensbury Park|series=Local Nature Reserves|publisher=Natural England| accessdate= 27 March 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gigl.org.uk/online/site-Details.aspx?sID=M091&sType=sinc|title=Upper River Wandle|publisher=Greenspace Information for Greater London|year=2013|accessdate= 27 March 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gigl.org.uk/online/|title=iGiGL data portal (map)|publisher=Greenspace Information for Greater London|accessdate= 27 March 2014}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.londongardensonline.org.uk/gardens-online-record.asp?ID=MER041|title=Ravensbury Park|publisher=London Parks and Gardens Trust|accessdate= 27 March 2014}} 2 : Local nature reserves in Greater London|Nature reserves in the London Borough of Merton |
