A new park has officially opened at Lavender Grange, a housing development on Bedford Road, between Lower Stondon and Ickleford.
Paul McBride, a local resident, named it Trinity Park in honour of the original landowners.
The opening of the park marks the completion of the development, which has been constructed by Barratt Homes.
Members of Ickleford Parish Council, Tom Rhea (planning officer for North Herts District Council) and representatives from Barratt North Thames all attended the opening.
The park includes play equipment for children and families to enjoy, as well as native plants and hibernacula, where animals can hibernate during the winter.
Judith Crosier, from Ickleford Parish Council, said: “We were pleased to attend the recent opening of Trinity Park to mark the completion of Lavender Grange which has been a key addition to the community in Ickleford.
"We look forward to seeing the community at the development continue to evolve with the established local village and thank Barratt North Thames for its contribution towards green spaces in the area.”
Marc Woolfe, head of sales at Barratt North Thames, commented: “It has been a pleasure to welcome our key stakeholders to celebrate the success of Lavender Grange by honouring the history of the site with Trinity Park.
"We would like to thank Paul for naming this space with us and hope the area will help create a lifestyle that prioritises the health and wellbeing of our residents.
“Lavender Grange has provided 144 new private and affordable homes to the community, helping many first time buyers in the area to get on to the property ladder and will continue to help generations of families in Ickleford to remain in the village.
"The handful of new homes available at the site all benefit from great incentives and I would encourage anyone interested to take advantage whilst they can.
"We look forward to welcoming our final residents into their new homes and helping them start their next chapter here in Ickleford.”
Three houses remain for sale in the development, with prices starting at £550,000 for a four-bedroom property.
