Merton Park Studios was a British film production studio in South Wimbledon, London. In the 1940s, it was owned by the Film Producers Guild. They made "b" movies and second features.
Opened in 1930, many second features were produced there, and for a time was home to Radio Luxembourg. Unlike many other studios, they remained open during World War II, producing films for the Ministry of Information.
Merton Park had 2 small sound stages, and it was easy to miss as it looked like a part of the residential neighborhood.
