It includes the grounds of 18th century Morden Hall with a deer park including a variety of habitats and landscapes packed into its 125 acres. It is famous for a glittering series of film industry parties attracting the most famous domestic and international stars in the 1940s and 50s. Morden Hall Park is now looking to the future with a hydroelectric turbine harnessing the power of the Wandle and a new emphasis on local food.
