and Fulham’s Flagship Parks. The park is located a short walk from the Hammersmith Town centre and is accessible from the London Underground station of the same name. The 8.3 hectare open space is well used and loved by local residents and visitors from neighbouring boroughs. The space is popular for young children with 4 play areas and a paddling pool and is also used for sports, physical activity and simply enjoying the heritage, landscaping and wildlife. Combining attractive landscaping and a good range of wildlife habitats Ravenscourt Park has an excellent array of leisure facilities, including a wide variety of play equipment, tennis and basketball courts, an all weather pitch and a popular tea-house. It is extremely popular with all sections of the local community. This is evident in the large number of formal stakeholder groups with an interest in the park, its management and future development. The Park is an important community asset and forms part of the wider structural open space network of Greater London. Hammersmith and Fulham Council recognise that our open spaces are very important to residents and the wider community. They contribute to healthier lifestyles, social cohesion and encourage safer communities. The park provides for a variety of active and passive leisure activities and organised sports. The space is popular and highly valued by local residents. The park has a colourful history. It was originally saved from residential development when acquired by the then Metropolitan Board of Works with additional funds from the Vestry of Hammersmith in 1887. The public park was laid out by J. J. Sexby and was opened on the 19 May 1888. The park is currently owned and managed by Hammersmith and Fulham Council. Aims The aims of the management plan is to set out a comprehensive framework and information regarding Ravenscourt Park from policy and statutory framework, asset audit, its importance to the local community, operational management and a strategic development until 2022. It is a live document which will be reviewed annually to ensure that the site remains a quality park and can adapt to public needs and an essential environmental resource. Objectives The objectives for the sustainable management and future development of Ravenscourt Park are structured around the eight key criteria set by the Green Flag Award: 1. Creating a Welcoming Space 2. Providing a Park that is Healthy, Safe and Secure 3. A Park that is Clean and Well Maintained 4. Sustainable Management of Resources 5.

  • The Park Keeper
    The Park Keeper 1 ‘Most of us remember the park keeper of the past. More often than not a man, uniformed, close to retirement age, and – in the mind’s eye at least – carrying a pointed stick for collecting litter. It is almost impossible to find such an individual ...over the last twenty years or so, these individuals have disappeared from our parks and in many circumstances their role has not been replaced.’ [Nick Burton1] CONTENTS training as key factors in any parks rebirth.

  • Parks, People and Nature
    Parks, People and Nature A guide to enhancing natural habitats in London’s parks and green spaces in a changing climate Natural England works for people, places and nature to conserve and enhance biodiversity, landscapes and wildlife in rural, urban, coastal and marine areas. We conserve and enhance the natural environment for its intrinsic value, iithe wellbeing and enjoyment of people, and the economic prosperity it brings. Parks, People and Nature A guide to enhancing natural habitats in London’s parks and green spaces in a changing climate Introduction My vision for London is of a green city, and a fair city, where everyone has access to a high quality green space in which wildlife can be encountered close to where they live and work. London has some of the Ýnest parks of any capital city in the world. Yet it also has some areas lacking in green space, and many more where the quality of the green spaces could be better. This booklet provides a valuable practical guide on how to improve access to nature in parks and green spaces, complimenting my London Plan Implementation Report on Improving LondonersÔ access to nature. Appropriate design and management of our parks and green spaces will be one of the key challenges that will enable the City to adapt to climate change. Park managers need to be working now to plant the trees that will provide shade for a much warmer city in the 2080s. We also need to start thinking now how our parks can help in addressing broader environmental challenges such as Þood risk management.

  • Notes from the Unpublished Papers of Dorothy Stroud
    A list of landscapes that have been attributed to ‘Capability’ Brown This list, now in its fifth edition(16th December, 2016), has been compiled by John Phibbs from the work of others, primarily Dorothy Stroud, but also David Brown, Karen Lynch, Nick Owen, Susanne Seymour, Roger Turner, Peter Willis, and, in particular, my collaborator, Steffie Shields, who has checked and added to its drafts. The lists have also been shown to and commented on by the County Gardens Trusts. Great credit is due to all parties for their help. The list of attributions to Brown has elicited a good deal of correspondence for which I am very grateful, and among many others, thanks are due to Don Josey, Surrey Gardens Trust; Terence Reeves-Smyth and Patrick Bowe from Ireland; S.V.Gregory, Staffordshire Gardens Trust; Joanna Matthews, Oxfordshire Gardens Trust; Christine Hodgetts, Warwickshire Gardens Trust; the Dorset Gardens Trust; Kate Harwood, Hertfordshire Gardens Trust; Val Bott, Susan Darling and Barbara Deason, London Parks & Gardens Trust; Janice Bennetts, Wendy Bishop, Michael Cousins, Dr Patrick Eyres, Jane Furze, Tony Matthews, Jenifer White and Min Wood. Many correspondents have written with material about what Brown might have done at various places. I have to emphasise that the attributions list attempts to include all the places where he might have offered advice. It asks neither whether that advice was acted on, nor whether he was paid. The determination of what might have been done at any of these places is a distinct process and will always be open to question. The aim of this list is to assess the likelihood of each and all of the attributions that have been made to Brown.
