Queensmead Recreation Ground

Great sunny spot for sports. Has a nice kids area.

It's a shame is not taken care properly and all the grass is completely dry. Super nice place to go for a quick run workout or to just enjoy some sun.

Lovely spacious park ideal for families, joggers, dog walkers and more. Plenty of space for everyone. Beautiful little stream running through the centre of the park with ducks on it , a children's play area, plenty of hills for kids to run up and roll down while the parents picnic in the sun. Well maintained too and plenty of bins to put your rubbish in .

Nice open space in Bromley with a play area, place for ball games etc. Play area is well maintained, has a soft surface under the rides.

Beautiful green place to spend some time

Beautiful old Parkland with a children’s playground, bowls club, War Memorial and small woodland area. Queens Mead Recreation Ground was purchased by public subscription in 1887 to celebrate the 50th year of Queen Victoria’s reign. It then became the traditional site of Bromley fairs and gatherings. Up to the 1930’s it was the scene of all the main open air events in the town including Broom Day when it is reported that thousands of people flocked to the Mead to celebrate the day. It is in the flood plain of the River Ravensbourne, which once meandered across here, shaded by an army of fine elm trees. Time has treated the area savagely. Following the floods of 1969 the river was put into a concrete trench three years later and the elms all died from Dutch elm disease. Having been stripped of its picturesque elements what is left is a flat playing field. It used to be the site of some cricket matches during the summer but is now only used for football matches, official or impromptu. Improvements to this area are part of the long-term Ravensbourne Valley Restoration Scheme. Thanks for visiting.

Nice park, not the biggest, but lots of space to run around.
Lots of benches to sit around the green.
Plus children's play area.
Not sure I'd come to this park unless I was local and walking to it. Also good to walk dogs.

A fantastic playground to start your day or some fun for kids on weekends
