Awarded to Grenfell Park in July 2012 for the first year in recognition of achieving the national standard for parks and green spaces in England & Wales.
Grenfell Park was donated to the town in 1897 by Lord Desborough (William Grenfell) to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee. The park has a large number of unusual trees; these seeds were provided by Lord Desborough after travelling the world. The Park forms a natural amphitheatre with steep wooded banks and large flat grassed area to the rear of the park.
Grenfell Park lies in the heart of Maidenhead, not 5 minutes walk from the main train station, but provides a moment of green space in amongst a built up town.
Located on Grenfell Road, close to the Town Centre and Train Station at Maidenhead
Grenfell Park can be accessed by pedestrians from its northern end at South Road, there are multiple paths and both steps and walkways.
