  • Radnor Gardens Management Plan 2020-21: Foreword
    Official January 2020 – December 2021 1 Official Radnor Gardens Management Plan 2020-21: Foreword Radnor Gardens are a vitally important asset for local people and visitors to the borough. The London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (the Council) aspires to maintain and manage the Gardens to the highest standards. This management plan is based on the use of an audit of the park following central government guidance known as PPG 17. This is explained within this document but the approach is based on common sense. We believe that it is important to get the simple things right. Is the green space clean and tidy? Is the grass cut? Are the trees and shrubs well maintained? Is any graffiti removed effectively and quickly? Working with local communities to deliver the highest quality of service is top priority and it is hoped that this document will provide a framework for continuing and improving dialogue. The site will be maintained appropriately and the local community will be consulted on any proposed changes or improvements to facilities or infrastructure. In particular, the borough works closely with the Friends of Radnor Gardens. We actively encourage suggestions about all aspects of the park. While the Council is open to the changing needs of the community with regards to any of the borough’s parks, the Gardens are long established and are well maintained. There have been major renovations over the last few years, these include the installation of a new playground; repairs to the boundary wall; shrub bed replanting; transformation of a parks building into a café kiosk and renovation of the bowling green.

  • Report 2008 Final.Pmd
    THAMES LANDSCAPE STRATEGY Hampton to Kew ANNUAL REVIEW of 2008 THE YEAR AT A GLANCE 2008 Partnership and Strategic Planning The greatest strength of the Thames Landscape Strategy is the partnership of riparian organisations, local groups and friends. The Thames Landscape Strategy works through the partnership to inform strategic policy and to ensure that the aims of the Strategy are implemented on the ground. In 2008 the TLS was actively involved in the development of several regional strategic plans that would affect the river corridor. The TLS sits on the Water Framework Directive Thames Region Liaison Panel, representing the three sub-regional partnerships for the River Thames across London and the wider estuary. In addition, the TLS has actively participated in the development of the strategic flood risk management plan for the River Thames through the TE2100 study. At a local level, the TLS has been a key player in the production of both the Brentford and Kingston Area Action Plans. The TLS has ensured that the principles contained in the GLA Plan for London Blue Ribbon Annex have been incorporated into the action plans to protect and strengthen the way that these two riverside communities will manage their river, boating heritage and infrastructure for the next 20 years. The TLS continues to provide advice and guidance to a range of strategic partnerships including the River Thames Alliance, Tidal Thames Habitat Action Group, River Thames Education Network and the Thames Tideway Strategic Study. During 2008 the TLS has commented on 15 planning applications, notably the Jolly Boatman site, Kingston Power Station site, and Kew Bridge Brentford.
