Lloyd Park
The gardens of the house, now known as Lloyd Park, notably include a moat which pre-dates the Georgian house. As part of the 2012 redevelopment, the disused Waltham Forest Theatre located inside the moat was demolished and made into part of the park. Parts of the park were newly landscaped. A skate park and a new cafe and gallery space in the adjoining Aveling Park were built as part of the same redevelopment project, replacing similar run-down facilities.
