Blakers Park
There will be improvements to the play area at Blakers Park from 16 April for 2-3 weeks which will result in partial closure for 6-8 weeks to allow space for the contractors to work and afterwards to allow the turf to establish. The nearest alternative site is Preston Park.
Blakers Park is a well-loved and well-used community space in the Fiveways area of Brighton. Although compact in size it has a large number of features including a small friendly café, tennis courts and a recently renovated playground. The park also contains a distinctive Victorian clocktower.

Don't miss this.....
In the middle of the park is its most recognisable feature, the fifty foot high Clock Tower. Unveiled on the 15th September 1896 and donated by the park’s founder Mayor Alderman J.G. Blaker, it is made of steel, cast iron and finished in bronze.
Today it remains as a main focal point of the park, offering a unique area to enjoy some food and drink from the nearby cafe.
