Barclay Park
Park View, Hoddesdon
The park is set on a gentle hillside which leads down to an
ornamental lake. This rolling landscape of grassland is
broken up by areas of densely planted trees and part of the site is
managed as a wildflower meadow with grasses and sedges that are
tolerant of the moist conditions.
Adjoining Barclay Park is Cock Lane Open Space, managed by the
Hoddesdon Trustees; a large informal area of grassland and woods.
The total area of the park is 18.3 acres and facilities include car
parking, picnic tables, a duck pond, toilets, easy access pathway
and play equipment. Community events, such as Easter Egg hunts,
take place in the park.
