Stratford Park formally known as West Ham Lane Recreation Ground
was opened in stages between 1899 and 1912.
The section of the park, which is next to Whalebone Lane, was
formerly part of the grounds of a grand house named 'Senables' or
'Sanables', which had belonged to the Archdeacon of Essex from the
15th century to the 18th century.
By the second half of the 19th century, the house had gone but the
estate was still in the possession of the Archdeacon and included
land and houses on the western side of West Ham Lane. The freehold
was sold to West Ham Council in 1899.
