Broomfield Park N13 - Enfield
Early C18 formal gardens associated with Broomfield House, comprising a walled enclosure focussed on a series of formal lakes, and set within a landscape park. Converted for use as a public park in the early C20, with input from Thomas Mawson. The lakes are in poor condition and the historic parkland has suffered losses to development. The house and stable block are in very bad condition and are at risk, and the Local Authority is developing strategies for their restoration. A Conservation Management Plan exists for the landscape and discussions are needed to secure its implementation.
