About Chestnuts Park Playground
Chestnuts Park sits between the West Green, St Ann's and Harringay neighbourhoods in the London Borough of Haringey, which manages and maintains it. This roughly five-hectare park was transformed from a former recreation ground and now offers a strong mix of facilities for families. Children can use the playground and multi-use games area, ride the zip wire, or shoot hoops on the informal basketball area, while adults have access to an outdoor gym and bookable tennis courts. The park also features a community willow garden and a fruit-tree orchard, a park café, and toilet facilities. It holds a Green Flag Award and is protected for public recreation. During recent play-area improvement works elsewhere in the borough, Haringey Council has pointed families to Chestnuts Park as an open alternative. Entry is free and the park is open around the clock. As with all Haringey parks, it is described by the council as accessible to wheelchair users. Please check the council website before travelling for any temporary closures.
