Harlow Town Park is huge and centres around the ancient hamlet of Netteswell Cross. It is impressively landscaped and well maintained. It incorporates a showground that hosts travelling fairs and circuses and an annual free firework display that rivals anything in the London area. There is a well-equipped adventure playground suitable for children of all ages and a pitch and putt course. Summer concerts are played at the bandstand. A network of minor roads and ancient lanes converted to footpaths and cycle tracks criss-cross this pleasant expanse of green.
