Mudchute Park and Farm

London Borough of Tower Hamlets, United Kingdom

Mudchute Park and Farm is a large urban park and city farm located in East London, in Cubitt Town on the Isle of Dogs. It is a local nature reserve and a Site of Metropolitan Importance for Nature Conservation. The name of the site is a testament to the engineering overspill when Millwall Dock was being constructed in the 1860s. Spoil from the excavation of the dock, and silt from its channels and waterways were dumped on nearby land, using a conveyor system.
