The Final Open Space Audit and Assessment has been prepared to provide up to date information on recreational open space within Swindon. This information can then be used to support the policies in the Local Plan and to help inform the preparation of a Parks and Open Space strategy for the Borough. The Audit and Assessment report is divided into two sections. The main report sets out the methodology used, results of consultation, open space standards and a summary of the results. Annex 1 provides open space profiles for each of the Borough's wards and is accompanied by maps.
The documents can be downloaded as pdf files :
