A dedicated volunteer team, loyal customer base and thriving partnerships continue to generate surplus for reinvestment into park wellbeing projects. But above all, we are proud of the difference we’ve made and continue to make - a positive impact on people’s lives, Broomfield Park and Palmers Green.

The conservatory is a tropical oasis in Broomfield Park. It has a central bed where plants grow around a fish pond and waterfall. Other exotic plants grow in pots on the perimeter staging and outside the entrance. 

The gates were installed in 1953 to commemorate the Coronation and the 50th Anniversary of the purchase of the Park by the council. Four medallions bear the arms of the former Southgate Borough and the motto "Ex Glande Quercus" ("From the Acorn, the Oak").

This sunken area was dug out as a gravel pit in the 18th and 19th centuries to enable the upgrade of Green Lanes from a grass track into a road usable by wagons and carriages. By 1905 it had been levelled and grassed. During World War II it was ploughed up and used to grow potatoes.

These listed walls, enclosing the 6 acre ornamental garden, date back in parts to the time of Henry VII and elsewhere to the 17th and 18th century.

This dates probably from the late 16th century and was expanded in the early 18th century. The eleven strong iron hooks just below the canopy were probably used to hang venison from the (royal?) hunts.

North London Netball league weekends Sept - April, tennis courts bookable during the week and at weekends in the summer.

Opened by Earl Jellicoe in 1929, it centres on a memorial cairn, originally constructed of 280 stones but later extended. The garden includes a pond, ornamental pergola and seats made from timber from HMS Dido. Information about the remembrance garden is included in the Imperial War Museum War Memorials Archive.

The three lakes in front of the House date from the 16th Century or earlier and were originally fish ponds. In the early 18th century they probably became the centre of a Baroque water garden. Between 1903 and 1933 the lower lake was used for swimming and bathing.

The bandstand was built in 1927 and in the past was used by local brass bands. It is still in use today and is the venue for the annual Broomfield Blues Summer concerts.

This herbaceous border runs inside the west wall of the ornamental garden and contains perennial flowering plants and rose beds. At nearly 200 metres, it is one of the longest in London.

Developed in 2019 as part of a wider flood alleviation scheme the wetlands have become a thriving oasis for wildlife and reed beds that help to clean and filter rainwater from local roads.

The garden and adjoining multi-use games area were constructed partly using funds collected from the local community and commemorate the five members of the Miah family who died in a fire in their flat above the Dipali restaurant in Alderman's Hill in 1997.

A completely new orchard set up in 2009 on the site of a disused bowling green and managed by a group of volunteers. Mature trees now provide an abundance of apples each year - many of which are old varieties

The model boating pond was dug in 1903, shortly after the opening of the Park. After three years of being empty, it is now being repaired. Read updates under our 'news' area of the website.

No longer used as a bowling green since the closure of Southgate Bowling Club, the space has been repurposed  for outdoor arts and cultural events.
