Pyrgo Park
Pyrgo Park is a park at Havering-atte-Bower in the London Borough of Havering, in North East London, England. It is the site of the former Pirgo Palace, built before 1540 and demolished by 1814; and of Pyrgo House, built 1852, which lasted less than a century. Pyrgo is one of three large parklands in Havering-atte-Bower, the others being Bedfords Park and Havering Country Park. Toponymy ''Purgore'' is first recorded in 1490 and probably means 'triangular plot of land where pear trees grow'. It is formed from Old English (peartree) and 'gāra' ( a triangular piece of land). ''Pergore Park'' is first recorded in 1544 but ''Portegore'' and ''Portegoo'' were also used in the 16th century. The modern form was recognisable as ''Pergo Park'' in 1805, but ''Pirgo'', ''Purgo'' and ''Pyrgo'' are all variants found. Ordnance Survey maps have shown ''Pyrgo'' for at least the last 100 years. Pirgo Palace Pirgo, spelt Portegore by Henry VIII's officials, was a royal residence of King H ...
