We are extremely lucky to have many open spaces throughout the village of Hatfield Peverel and surrounding areas. In 2025, we will be continuing 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 than the No Mow May period 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 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):

We have two children's play areas in Hatfield Peverel - one located at the Strutt Memorial Recreation Ground and the other located in Nounsley along the Ulting Road.  There is also an outdoor gym. located at Strutt Memorial Recreation Ground which is free to use. 

In future, we hope to provide the community with a double tennis court (this will be sited next to the outdoor gym).

The Parish Council is working on creating a Community Park in Hatfield Peverel.  If you are interested in getting involved with the project and would like to join the Community Park Working Party, please contact the Clerk.
