Public space open to the community again

Published: Monday, 29th July 2019

The previous Environmental Park near to Sevenoaks town centre has been undergoing improvements and is now open to the public again.

Earlier in the year, the new Sevenoaks Town Car Park opened providing much needed long stay parking for residents and visitors. The decision was taken by Sevenoaks District Council to use the excess soil from the building work to improve and level the old Environmental Park land, which has been leased to the Council from the Knole estate for the next 15 years. As part of the works, Sevenoaks District Council has planted many trees, grassed areas and wild flowers to encourage the bee population as well as creating a small amphitheatre and open space for residents to use as well as improving the access to Knole Park.

An official launch of the new Park will take place later in the year.
