A number of trees have been taken out recently for various reason but there is a current project to replace them...

For those who are looking for a club to join and get involved in there is an outdoor bowls club in the park which will reopen in the Spring. We really are very lucky to live in an area with such a lovely open space such as Seven Kings park and if you haven't yet been there it really is...
