The park was established by Hornchurch Urban District Council in 1936 when the council purchased the 42 acres (0.17 km2) of Harrow Lodge Farm from the London County Council for £16,250. A further 34.86 acres (0.1411 km2) were added to the park when Costain, developers of Elm Park Garden City, donated land to the council as part of a planning agreement.[2]
