I Love Dane Park consultation
This consultation is now closed. Results will be
available shortly.
Do you love Dane Park?
If so, we want to hear from you in our ‘I Love Dane Park’ public
consultation, which runs from Wednesday 14 February until Friday 30
March 2007.
Voted one of the most popular parks in Thanet in 2004, Dane Park
was presented to the Margate Borough Council by a local
businessman at the end of the 19th century and first opened to the
public in 1898 by the Lord Mayor of London. Today, it is still the
main park for Margate residents.
Margate Civic Society asked Thanet District Council to see if
the park could qualify for a Green Flag award.
Only five other parks in the whole of Kent have a Green Flag
award and it’s hoped Dane Park could soon be added to that
list.

Now we want to hear your views to help shape the future for Dane
Park, so if you use the park or would like to use the park in the
