Free Car Park Old Hall Ln, Maldon CM9 8TP
Free riverfront parking with accessible bays, lit paths, and direct access to Promenade Park.
Free Car Park on Old Hall Lane is a council-operated facility serving visitors to Maldons historic Promenade Park and Hythe Quay. The lot provides 60 sealed gravel bays, including four accessible spaces located nearest the pedestrian crossing leading to the park entrance. Parking is free of charge year-round to encourage exploration of the waterfront; overnight stays are discouraged by signage. Solar-powered LED bollard lights line pedestrian routes from dusk until 9:00 pm, ensuring safe egress after evening strolls. No CCTV is installed due to low night-time traffic; village wardens conduct periodic patrols. Covered information boards at the entrance display Promenade Park event schedules, river safety guidelines, and local bus timetables for the 90 service to Chelmsford. Pedestrian pathways connect directly to the parks boating lake, steam train station, and fish and chip outlets within a two-minute walk. Quarterly maintenance includes gravel replenishment, line repainting of bay markers, and litter clearance to maintain a tidy, welcoming environment.
