Formerly known as Winns Playing Fields, Lloyd Park was part of an extensive estate with fields scattered in many parts of the borough. In 1898 the family of Edward Lloyd gave the Water House, once the home of William Morris, together with the grounds, to the Walthamstow Urban District Council.
The park was opened on 28July 1900 and was renamed Lloyd Park in Edward Lloyd's memory.
To commemorate the centenary of Lloyd Park, a time capsule was buried in the lawn outside the William Morris Gallery on 28 July 2000.
