Engage in conversations with our officers, visit the site, spark ideas, and share your opinions!  

  • How can we reimagine this space and integrate it into the wider Regent Road Park?  

  • What amenities are missing in this area?  

  • What are the site's strengths and weaknesses?  

  • What activities and features would you like to see offered here?  

Please note there are no facilities on-site and access to the bowling green area is limited. The space has not been used for some time, so please be careful when navigating the path and stepping on the green itself. Please note, a large number of rabbits live on-site.  

This session is a community collaboration between Abbeyhill Action, Abbeyhill Colony of Artists, Leith Community Growers and Thriving Greenspaces team.

What Happens Next?  

Following this initial workshop, we will continue to engage with local communities, schools, and groups through tailored workshops and online meetings. We will then open a dialogue on our the City of Edinburgh Council Consultation and Engagement hub. Your feedback will shape our proposals, which will then be presented to the Committee for further consideration and recommendations.
