Ladywell Fields Forever

Robert Sheppard, Secretary, Ladywell Fields User Group has provided this update on the project to redevelop Ladywell Fields:

Work on the the Parklands project, which will bring about major improvements to the middle and southern parts of Ladywell Fields (from the end of Malyons Road right down to Catford), started in July. The project, funded by LDA/Thames Gateway will involve river renaturalisation, landscaping works and extensive tree planting and will provide new riverside features, play facilities, an event space, some new pathways and bridges, tennis court refurbishment and better signage.

At the same time - though not part of the Parklands project - construction of the new adventure playground continues. The facility should be fully up-and-running by the Autumn.
