Mayfield Park is situated between Woolston and Weston. The 100-year-old house was demolished in 1956, but thanks to the 4th Baron Radstock, the wooded gardens and playing fields
remain a priceless amenity to the population of Southampton. The gardens and playing fields are very well maintained and used by local people.

The playing fields are separated from the gardens by a gully, the south and west side of which is covered by rhododendron thicket. The obelisk erected in memory of Charles James Fox stands at the northern end of the playing fields. 

The nursery in the kitchen garden was closed in 1992 and the greenhouses became derelict until 1995, when they were leased to the charity Mind, who now run a project for mentally disabled people.
