Building a lasting green space in the heart of Claygate
Come and visit Claygate Recreation Ground to enjoy our wonderful green space and woodlands. Nestled in the centre of Claygate Village, the ‘Rec’ as it is affectionately known, is at the hub of community life offering a vital open space and a place of nature where friends and families can meet, socialise and play. It is open every day throughout the year from 7am until dusk.
EXPLORE: Our woodlands area and our family garden.
PLAY: Home to our Claygate Cricket and Football clubs, Claygate Recreation Ground offers a range of sporting and leisure activities including fitness bootcamps and keep-fit sessions, after school activities, a multi-use games area, children’s play area and plenty of space for dog walking, general exercise or to enjoy a picnic.
RELAX: Soak up the fresh air and enjoy the great outdoors with friends or take in a game of cricket. Stay for lunch, a cup of tea and cake at our new Claygate Pavilion which always offers a warm welcome.
