Improvements to Killingworth Lakeside Park

The consultation with residents regarding the improvements to Killingworth Lakeside Park supported upgrading of the wooded areas and work has begun.


A site investigation took place in December followed by removal of trees tin January and February, see photos. Many of the trees were Die Back infected Ash Trees and this has given the area light and space to plant a variety of new trees.

Pupils from schools in Killingworth have been helping plant a new mix of tree species to boost biodiversity at their local park.

The Green Flag award-winning Killingworth Lakeside Park is about to be redeveloped, with plans for a new play site, better parking, ecology-friendly landscaping, new street furniture and entrance features, and improved cycle and pedestrian routes.
