Q4. What kind of impact do you feel the following proposed changes will have:
a) New purpose built facility at the lakeside – this would be the focal point for activity on the lake and would replace the existing buildings. It would house a restaurant, the Owls, and a space for indoor events. There would also be a changing places facility.
b)New purpose built visitors centre at the Barkingside entrance that would have toilet facilities including changing places and a kiosk/café for food and drink

d) Natural play adventure trail – an interactive and low impact trail that runs around Fairlop
e) New purpose built Fairlop Outdoor activity centre – a new build facility to replace the existing building. This would improve the range of activities that could be offered to children and young people as well as the potential for being a base for other activities too.
f) Active leisure – space for future leisure and play activities that could add new elements to Fairlop and bring in revenue.
g) Outdoor classroom and sensory garden – located close to Barkingside entrance and aimed at use by local forest groups or local primary schools
