The London Borough of Hackney, one of the inner London boroughs, has 62 parks, gardens and open spaces within its boundaries, totalling 330 ha. These provide the "green lungs" for leisure activities. Hackney Marshes contain the largest concentration of football pitches in Europe. In July 2008, seven Hackney parks won Green Flag awards for Clissold, Springfield, Haggerston and Shoreditch parks, together with London Fields, St John's churchyard and Hackney Downs. St John's was also awarded 'Heritage Green Status'.〔''Hackney Today'' 188 21 July 2008〕 However, by contrast, Abney Park in Hackney was included in the Heritage at Risk Register in 2009 as one of Britain's historic parks and gardens at risk from neglect and decay.〔(English Heritage's 'At Risk' register ) accessed 5 July 2010〕 ==Principal open spaces== Apart from smaller green areas such as sports grounds and smaller gardens, the following are the major open spaces in the Borough: * Abney Park Cemetery (Local Nature Reserve) – * Clapton Common – 〔(''Clapton Common'' ) 30 June 2009 (Planning Inspectorate Casework) accessed 19 Sept 2009〕 * Clissold Park – () * Hackney Downs – 〔(''Hackney Downs Common'' ) 30 June 2009 (Planning Inspectorate Casework) accessed 19 Sept 2009〕 * Hackney Marshes – 〔(''£10m Olympics makeover for Hackney Marshes'' ) 24 June 2009 (''Evening Standard'') accessed 19 Sept 2009/article.do〕 * Haggerston Park – 〔(''Haggerston Park'' ) (Green Flag Awards) accessed 19 September 2009〕 * London Fields - * Millfields (North and South) * Shoreditch Park – 〔(''Shoreditch Park'' ) (Green Flag Awards) accessed 19 September 2009〕 * Springfield Park (Local Nature Reserve) – * Stoke Newington Common – . * Victoria Park is an park, bordering on South Hackney, in the adjacent London Borough of Tower Hamlets. * Well Street Common – . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Parks and open spaces in Hackney」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
