George V Park is a small park located on the Canterbury Road. This is the first scheme where we worked together with Kent County Council who were already planning a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) scheme for the site. TUF worked with the KCC Tree Officer and the Project Manager in charge of the design of the scheme to get as many trees as possible onto the site. The park is now beautifully planted with a variety of trees & shrub, and wild flowers have been planted to disguise the emergency drainage areas as much as possible.
We planted a variety of trees on the site, and KCC planted some trees, many shrubs and flowers to attract wildlife including a sowing of grasses and wildflowers.
