Cassland Road Gardens renamed ‘Kit Crowley Gardens’
Cassland Road Gardens was renamed Kit Crowley Gardens in July 2021. This was the first action taken by the Review, Rename, Reclaim project, which is the name given to the Council’s review into the legacies of African enslavement history and colonialism in the borough.
A public consultation was held between 22 February and 11 April 2021 during which time over 600 local residents and park users voted for the new name. Read more about the renaming.
