Open Spaces

We are extremely lucky to have many open spaces throughout the village of Hatfield Peverel and surrounding areas. In 2025, we continued with our Rewilding Initiative, taking part in Plantlife's No Mow May to allow wildflowers to flourish, providing essential food for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators while offering shelter for small mammals. 
The map below shows the Rewilding areas around the village for 2025. Some areas will be left longer as we continue into Let It Bloom June to continue to rewild throughout the summer season. To find out more information on rewilding vist: https://www.plantlife.org.uk/

Our Wildlife Champion, Donna Goddard, has also provided this useful map of the village to show local dog waste bins, playgrounds, defibrillators, sports facilities and other amenities (click the top right broken square to enlarge):
