Introduction
Features of Hanworth Park include a playground, cricket, rugby and football pitches.
The land was once part of Henry VII's hunting grounds with a lodge, Hanworth House or Manor, located adjacent to the parish church of St George (q.v.). The park was a popular haunt of Henry VIII who gave it to Anne Boleyn in 1532 and then to Katherine Parr, who lived here after the King's death with her fourth husband Sir Thomas Seymour, Lord Admiral.
