Thornbury Park Friends
A Community Interest Company providing care and support for Thornbury Park in Isleworth, TW7.
ABOUT US
Thornbury Park is a community open space connecting Isleworth and Hounslow in West London.
It was originally a gravel pit but is now a substantial
open grassland park with woodland areas. It has a skate park, a children’s play ground, an outdoor gym, a hard play area for Basketball, football and netball and a community orchard.
Back in the 1960s it featured in the Beatles film A Hard Day’s Night. These days it provides a vital green open space for a multicultural community in a bustling urban environment.
