Welcome to the website of the
Canons Park Estate Association (CPEA). The area that we live in is
unique in London as it is offers an oasis of calm and beauty within
suburbia.
In all, there are over 320 houses
and 66 flats on the Estate, which was created in the 1930s. At the
same time, the CPEA was formed to maintain the trees, lakes and
grass verges that formed the surplus lands left over after the area
was divided up for housing, having originally formed part of the
huge estate of the first Duke of Chandos, in the 18th
century.
Canons Drive, with its
magnificent avenue of Wellingtonia trees, provides a beautiful
backdrop to a number of locally-listed `Arts and Crafts‘ or ‘black
and white’ Tudor-style houses, which also feature in the small
closes and side roads that lead off it.
Our two lakes, which include the
Seven Acre Lake – private, and surrounded by houses - and the Basin
Lake on Canons Drive - for which we allow access to the general
public - provide an opportunity for Residents and visitors alike to
enjoy nature first hand, in a setting that is forever changing from
season to season.
We hope you enjoy finding out
more about the Estate by navigating this site. However, if you have
any further questions, or need to contact us for any reason, please
feel free to do so.
As Chairwoman of the CPEA I am
proud to call the Estate home.
