Hornchurch Country Park is located at the southern end of Hornchurch on the site of the WW1 RFC Suttons Farm and WW2 RAF Hornchurch.
The former being famous for being the base from which Lieutenant Leefe-Robinson VC took off from to shoot down the first airship over land and the latter as a major Battle of Britain Airfield from which many famous pilot aces flew from.
In 2015 Essex Wildlife Trust Ingrebourne Valley Visitor Centre opened within the park.
The trust offers a range of educational events as well as providing food and refreshments for visitors to the park.
