Palmers Green Jewel in the North

The focus is on the sense of place which makes it special, and how we and our neighbours share and enjoy present day Palmers Green.

Friends of Firs Farm Park
Firs Farm Park, the area to the south of Firs Lane, is used as playing fields.

This is being done to improve an existing flood defence bund on the eastern boundary. There will be a second phase of work in 2015, which will provide additional crossing points and wetland features. None of this work adversely affects the sports pitches, but should make this green space more aesthetically pleasing, once the new wetland vegetation becomes naturalised.
