Background
History
Horn Park was one of three parks attached to Eltham Palace. The area was heavily wooded and was stocked with deer until the destruction of both during the English Civil War. The park became farmland until 1936 when the Metropolitan Borough of Woolwich began the construction of the Horn Park Estate. The estate was not completed until the 1950s, with work being interrupted by World War II. An old manor named Horne was recorded on the land in 1242, and later the area was recorded as park of Horn in 1481. Horn Park appears as a named place in a 1762 map by Emanuel Bowen, and an Ordnance Survey map from 1805. The Old English word Horn refers to a 'projecting horn-shaped piece of land'.
