Oakwood Park, Enfield

It is notable for its commemorative avenue of poplar trees, an avenue of scarlet oaks planted by mayors of Enfield, and an ice well that was built by Samuel Sugden, on whose estate of Oak Lodge the park was largely built and after which it was named.

[3] He rebuilt the house into a much more substantial residence known as Oak Lodge with a walled garden, orchard, ice well, and a collection of outbuildings.

[2] The Lodge and outbuildings were demolished just after the end of the First World War[2] and in 1927 Southgate Urban District Council purchased 50 acres from Sugden's estate[4] which it combined with 8.5 acres it purchased from the Vicar of Enfield to form Oakwood Park.

[2] The park opened in 1929 and after further adjustments caused by the construction of the Piccadilly Line northern extension (1932) now comprises 64 acres of land.

A surface WW2 air raid shelter, brick built with concrete slab roof survives.
