Green flag judging

Green Flag judges have carried out this year’s assessment of Alexandra Park.
The award scheme recognises and rewards well managed parks and green spaces, setting the benchmark standard for the management of recreational outdoor spaces across the United Kingdom
Alexandra Park first gained the Green Flag status in 2016.
It was developed in the 1970s to provide recreational opportunities for the expanding population of the new town of Cramlington.
The layout is modern with large areas of amenity open space housing football pitches, a bowling green, pavilion, play areas, multi use games area and a skate park. The park also affords informal recreational opportunities and has excellent off road links with surrounding areas through a network of footpaths and cycleways.
