About this site 

This site was setup to be a one stop shop for all green spaces in Darlington.  This was created to promote Green Spaces in Darlington and formed  part of the DOVES strategy to raise awareness of the group but also the green spaces and the Friends Groups who work tirelessly to try and keep the green spaces tidy and relevant. 

A page is dedicated to each green space within the greater Darlington area being divided into compass sections e.g. North, South, Northeast etc in the menu.  The page has information in it to include, but not limited to:

• Space in Hectares making ref to the Darlington Borough Council website see  https://www.darlington.gov.uk/environment/estates-and-property/land-and-property-interests/
