Will the Historic Garendon Park be open to the public?
Garendon Park will be opened up during phase one of the development. Access will be via a series of approved footpaths and cycleways that will be permanently open.
There will not be free roaming across the whole park because of the need to protect the heritage assets and landscape and a great deal of the land will remain in agricultural use providing a peaceful rural backdrop for visitors. The assets within the park will be sensitively restored. These include:
- The triumphal arch
- The temple of venus
- The entrance archway to the hall
- The obelisk
- The barns and outbuildings
- The boundary wall
- Stonebow Bridge
The lodges within the park will remain in residential use and are not included in the restoration programme.
Parking on Coe Avenue might be you best bet as access via the A512 may cause parking obstruction.
