Shortlisted in the PUBLIC SPACES category

Claremont Park is the first of seven parks that will be delivered in the new neighbourhood of Brent Cross Town. Brent Cross Town is a joint venture between Related Argent and Barnet Council to develop a large-scale mixed-use development including new homes, retail and office space, as well as improved schools and greenspaces. At the heart of the new park town is a focus on health and wellbeing, and participation in sport and play, all of which are showcased at Claremont Park.

Claremont Park is an important neighbourhood space for the local community to relax and spend time in, a place to be active, to play and socialise, as well as a place to interact with the natural environment.

The new park expands on what was an existing open space that was in need of rejuvenation and now provides a 4.5 acre green space bringing together imaginative play facilities, water features, nature trails and a new community-run Kiosk, as well as over 300 new trees which have been planted across the park.

Vote for this project in the ‘People’s Choice Award’. The voting deadline is 1 November 2022.
