Blackheath Park is an oil on panel landscape painting by the Irish artist William Mulready, from 1852. It is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum, in London.
The prolific collector John Sheepshanks was a good friend and patron of Mulready. This painting shows the view across the park from the gate of Sheepshanks's house at Blackheath, South London. A critic described the picture as 'a refreshing green bit of nature'.
