Discover Hurlingham Park, Fulham

I discovered Hurlingham Park early one Sunday morning. It is the home of Hammersmith and Fulham Rugby Football Club and is located next to the swanky Hurlingham in a leafy riverside location in Fulham. 

 In September 1954, the site became a public park on the same day as the opening meeting of the athletics track, originally made of cinder. The huge track, which has a rare 200m straight alongside where the grandstand used to be (now there is just a substantial pavilion), was last used for a race in 1979. The infield is still used for rugby and football games - it is the home of Hammersmith and Fulham Rugby Football Club - and in recent years, the field has been used once again for polo, hosting the annual Polo in the Park competition in June. Monty Pythonfans may recognise Hurlingham Park from the famous sketch "The 127th Upper Class Twit of the Year", which was filmed here back in 1969.
