Crystal Palace Park SE19 - Bromley

Mid-C19 pleasure grounds designed by Sir Joseph Paxton as a setting for the Crystal Palace, burnt down in 1936. The park is in variable condition with related listed structures also at risk. An approved regeneration plan is being implemented alongside a new sustainable governance and management model via the Crystal Palace Park Trust. A Stage 1 grant secured from the National Lottery Heritage Fund has enabled the Local Authority to develop and move forward with projects to repair and conserve the Geological Court and Terraces and improve park facilities and infrastructure.
