Parking in Darwin Green

Where to park a car in Darwin Green

General rule

Darwin Green is a no on-street parking zone. You cannot park your car on-street or, of course, on the pavement. Parking restrictions are regularly enforced and people parking on forbidden areas may get a fine.

Where to park

  • Obviously, residents should park their car(s) on their drives, in their garage, or on their allocated parking space.

  • Anyone can park on the designated visitor spaces. These should be for temporary parking for visitors only, and should not be used by residents to park their cars on a regular basis.

  • The Sports Pavilion in Darwin Green has a parking area with 20 spots, some of them with charging stations. The parking is open to the public and free to use.

Unsure

Some people have been using the parking space near Chapter House at the end of Lawrence Weaver Road, although it’s not clear whether this is permitted or not.

Be careful at the junction of Galton Road and Patagonia Way: it seems that the big pebble stones (also known as “dinosaur eggs”) on the side of the road are not visible enough, and multiple incidents involving cars over these stones have occurred. It is Not Recommended to park here.
