Hertford Castle Greenspace Renewal
Hertford Castle and the surrounding greenspaces have been a prominent feature of the county town for hundreds of years, featuring stunning grounds, 12th Century curtain wall, Anglo-Saxon motte, and much more.
The heritage and wildlife engrained into the site are what makes Hertford Castle a truly special place.
Thanks to the National Lottery Heritage Fund, changes are happening to the greenspaces on site, breathing new life into the grounds and shaping how we interact with the historic and natural heritage here.
Hertford Castle Greenspace Renewal (HCGR) aims to promote the sites rich history, improve access across the site, and increase biodiversity through a range of interventions that are currently being developed.
The National Lottery Heritage Fund has awarded the project nearly £350,000 to develop and cost the plans over the next 12 months. Dedicated staff will work with consultants, technical experts and the community to ensure the project meets the needs of the local people, community groups and businesses. Keep your eyes peeled for some pilot activities too!
