Consultation has concluded

The Brent Cross Town team are consulting on the transformation of Clitterhouse Playing Fields and would like to hear your views.

Brent Cross Town will be set around 50 acres of parks and playing fields and will include the transformation of Clitterhouse Playing Fields. Despite Clitterhouse Playing Fields being equivalent to approximately 22 football pitches, it does not have a large range of facilities, which creates a significant opportunity to rejuvenate it for the existing and future residents of Brent Cross Town and for the wider community to enjoy.

Over the years, a number of planning applications have come forward

The Brent Cross Town team are consulting on the transformation of Clitterhouse Playing Fields and would like to hear your views.

Brent Cross Town will be set around 50 acres of parks and playing fields and will include the transformation of Clitterhouse Playing Fields. Despite Clitterhouse Playing Fields being equivalent to approximately 22 football pitches, it does not have a large range of facilities, which creates a significant opportunity to rejuvenate it for the existing and future residents of Brent Cross Town and for the wider community to enjoy.

Over the years, a number of planning applications have come forward and been consented for Brent Cross Cricklewood area and Brent Cross Town.

The original outline permission and masterplan for Brent Cross Town was approved in 2010 and subsequently updated in 2014. Detailed consent (reserved matters) for the playing fields was granted in 2015, which included sports facilities, play areas, a pavilion, park facilities and recreation areas.

We are now reviewing the consented plans to ensure the design meets the needs of the community now and into the future, with new high-quality facilities that generations to come will enjoy. The playing fields will be accessible, inclusive and welcoming to everyone who visits whether to relax, enjoy the green spaces or take part in play and sport.

We would like to understand how you use Clitterhouse Playing Fields at the moment, your vision for the playing fields and what you would like to see provided in the future.

    We asked

    We asked you about how you currently use and interact with Clitterhouse Playing Fields, which are due to be regenerated through the Brent Cross Town development, and how you would like to see them change in the future. Through the consultation we also asked you, among other things about your current opinion of the playing fields, how frequently you visit them, from which entrance you access them, and how much you enjoy using the space and for what activities.

    We asked you:

    • how you currently use the playing fields & what your current perceptions of them were
    • what improvements you thought could be made to them
    • we asked you what features would be important for you in the redevelopment of the space, and what type of experience you would like to have there.

    You said

    You told us that you use the Playing Fields regularly, all year round. The types of activities which you enjoyed doing at Clitterhouse Playing Fields tended to be more informal activities such as walking or going for a run. You also told us that you enjoy the openness of the playing fields, however you also told us that you would like to see more facilities available too, and that if more facilities were availability, you would be encouraged to take part in more sport.

    You told us that it is important to you that the Playing Fields are safe and welcoming to all users, as well as being well maintained and litter free. From the responses it was clear that the space should be suitable for all ages, provide interaction with nature as well as being a place where you can go to relax with friends.


    We did

    We have taken onboard your feedback and developed the emerging design for the playing fields to respond to your concerns and recommendations. We look forward to hearing your feedback on our proposals which will be out for public consultation in March 2022.
