Why it's Wildland

4.8

A Brentford green space where a historic manor estate meets the Grand Union Canal and River Brent, with a short park walk or a longer waterside jaunt.

Boston Manor Park makes a useful city escape through its mix of parkland, water and historic setting. Its appeal is a varied, accessible walk rather than a remote or wilderness experience.
