Lordship Rec – the full regeneration plans!

The Lordship Recreation Ground regeneration scheme has been submitted to Haringey Council’s planning department for approval. Getting such an approval is an essential precondition for receiving the funding needed from the Heritage Lottery Fund. All the planned works are included in the application except for the plans for the City Farm (which, due to the current funding shortfall, will be considered after the rest of the works are completed).

If you wish to look through all the key documents (and there are LOTS! – see * below), the application number is HGY/2010/0471, and you can click on the link below:

To all: thanks, and best wishes for 2010

To all those who care about Lordship Rec.

Lordship Rec Community Festival 2009This is an all-too-brief thank you to all those involved with the Lordship Rec Users Forum and to all the groups who care about our fantastic green space in the heart of Tottenham.

All of that individual and collective effort should be appreciated, whether its from residents and park users putting in their own time and resources, staff and officers working above and beyond the call of duty, or groups and organisations keeping their members informed and engaged throughout the numerous phases of this vital and in many ways unique community-led regeneration project.
