From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The London Borough of Harrow is one of the northern outer London boroughs: as such much of the Green Belt land is within the Borough boundaries. Parks and open spaces range from the large area around Harrow-on-the-Hill to the smaller gardens and recreation grounds; there are also a number of spaces taken up with golf courses . It has been suggested that Harrow is continuously losing its green space and trees.[1]
The main areas of open space are:
- Bentley Priory, Stanmore: 165 acres (66ha) open space; Site of Special Scientific Interest
- Canons Park: 45 acres (18ha) 18th century parkland
- Grimsdyke Open space and the adjoining Harrow Weald Common: total 57 acres (22.8ha)
