LODGE FARM PARK
Many thanks to the Council’s Parks Department for replanting the grass at the Sims Close entrance to the park. The Council works with Friends of Raphael and Lodge Farm Parks to help improve the park. For more information about the Friends please see http://www.friendsofraphaelpark.org.uk.
RAPHAEL PARK
The Parks Protection Service is to have an attendant at weekends and bank holidays during the summer to keep an eye on the toilets by the lake and keep them clean. Restoration of the historic landscape of the park will begin this Autumn, with new toilets provided.
CORONATION GARDENS
We have raised concerns about the state of some of the trees with the Council’s Parks Department.
