Devonshire Square is a new outdoor cultural and community space which has been designed in collaboration with local communities and responds to their aspirations and ambitions for Palmers Green. Since 2022, local communities have been testing out the versatility of this space through leading and delivering their own community events and activities. These include markets, outdoor dining, public art and play, and planting. Residents, communities and businesses have participated in a range of consultation and engagement activities to inform the design and function of Devonshire Square. These include drop-in sessions where local communities fed-back and commented on designs and models, focused meetings with key stakeholders including Palmers Green Action Team, Arbeit Studios and local businesses, and a co-design workshop at Laurel Park School, where year 10 students drew cherished local landmarks and key moments in Palmers Green’s history, which will be reflected in the landscape design of the Square.
