Community spaces

To build a true community, we recognise that people need spaces to meet and dwell. The Neighbourhood Centre at Kingsgrove will be a place to gather, celebrate and enjoy.

The woodland walk, play area and public square have been a hub of community activity since 2021, especially with the temporary café which was provided for the few years until the permanent spaces were built.

The Centre will have a community building, a convenience store, retail spaces, a central park, a sports pavilion, community gardens, play areas and a skate park, all of which are coming forward across 2025 and 2026.
