PArva Close Recreation ground
This important green space is used by the community as a recreational area and is managed primarily as amenity land. It boasts wildlife features and a play area. The play area is suitable for children of all ages; this includes a play park for younger children as well as facilities for older ones. Its open field is also perfect for picnics.
We are consulting residents on a draft Management Plan which can be read by clicking on the link below. This plan provides management objectives to encourage the sustainable use of the play area and improve the local environment for both people and wildlife.
You can read the Parva Close Recreation Ground Management Plan here.
Harpenden Town Council is keen to receive comments from residents regarding the Management Plan. Please contact : Alex Melson
