Park & Waterway-Adjacent Boundaries — N16
N16 covers Stoke Newington's Victorian terraces along Church Street, with several plots backing onto Clissold Park or the New River path.
Frequently asked — N16
Do Clissold Park boundaries need council agreement?
Where a garden backs directly onto park land, it's worth checking the exact boundary line and any conditions with the council before starting.
Are trees on the park or path side still protected?
Trees can be protected regardless of whose land they're on, so it's worth checking rather than assuming a garden-side tree order doesn't apply.
Is this different from Stoke Newington's usual terraced gardens?
Yes — most N16 terraces have private garden-to-garden boundaries; the park- and path-adjacent plots are a distinct minority with different considerations.
