I am really pleased to report that following meetings with tree officers of Croydon Council 7 new trees will be planted this autumn in the park. As ward councillors we continue to raise the plight of this neglected park at Full Council and at meetings with the Council. It has been battered by the bridge works but this is the first positive step to improving this important and well used park. The ward councillors will continue to push for further improvements particularly of the Childrens Playground.
