Lodge Farm Park Management Plan 2016 - 2021

Page 16

Lodge Farm Park Management Plan Update 2018/19 Signage Veolia funding enabled us to develop a walking route through 4 green flag parks in the North of the borough including Lodge Farm Park at its southern end. Each park was improved with signage or waymarkers to highlight the route to users and the Raphael Park manager organised a led walk on the 14th July 2018 (see update on Events) Lodge Farm Park has the markers (below) installed onto existing parks infrastructure

Fancy another walk? Follow the Thomas England markers to take part in the historic “Green Lung” walk. A local trader and businessman, Thomas England was instrumental in developing various public improvement schemes in the borough. In 1937, Mr England donated 9.74 hectares of land for the creation of Rise Park creating a “Green Lung” connecting Romford in the south to Havering Atte-Bower in the north. This long distance walk takes you through 4 Council-owned parks; Lodge farm Park, Raphael Park, Rise Park and Bedfords Park.
