History

edit

Cathnor Park was opened in 1973, and was first laid out on a former bomb site that had been largely derelict. The decision was taken in 1971 by the Hammersmith & Fulham Development Group Committee to provide more open space in the area west of Shepherd's Bush and north of the Goldhawk Road, and this was achieved when the land was transferred to the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. [1]

Today

edit

Cathnor Park is framed by Greenside Road to the west, Goodwin Road to the North, and Melina Road to the east. To the south is Hammersmith Academy. In March 2019 a Friends of Cathnor Park was established to help maintain the park and combat crime and anti-social behaviour. [2]
