Ashburton Park is a park located in Woodside, in the London Borough of Croydon, and takes its name from nearby Ashburton. The park is located next to Woodside tram stop, where Tramlink routes 1 and 2 service the park. It is on the junction of Lower Addiscombe Road and Spring Lane. The park covers an area of 18½ acres (7.49 hectares). The park includes a village green and a café.
The estate which now forms the park was at one point owned by Henry Dorling, first clerk to the course at Epsom Downs Racecourse and Mrs Beeton's step-father.[1]
