The Chorleywood House Estate has this summer been granted the prestigious Green Flag Award as one of the best green spaces in the country. Inspectors visited the site in June, and were impressed by the ease of access, the presence of such variety of areas – formal parkland, open meadows and mature woodland leading to the River Chess. They felt that Three Rivers District Council together with the Friends of Chorleywood House Estate were maintaining and improving the grounds for the benefit of the community. They mention also the community groups which use the estate, such as the Youth Football and Tennis Clubs.
