Wherever you are in Barnet, there will be a park not far from you that will be turned into a bustling arena of activity and vitality for a weekend in the summer.
Celebration in the Park for Hampstead Garden Suburb's centenary
The City of London Corporation and London Borough of Barnet are pleased to support Hampstead Garden Suburb in celebrating its centenary with a free family fun day in Golders Hill Park on Sunday 24 June 2007.
