The communal grounds are held in common for all residents to use. They are maintained on a regular basis by a team of gardeners and a caretaker whose remit is to deal with everyday matters that arise in the estate and as a line of communication with the managing agents. There is an ongoing plan of improvements which includes the replanting of trees, shrubs and flower beds.

The gardeners (Messrs Landform Maintenance) are on site between the hours of 8am and 4pm each weekday. 

If any resident would like to participate in the gardening either directly or by the provision of plants they should contact Wallakers.

Dog owners must not allow their dogs to defecate on the gardens. This is unsightly, unhealthy and detracts from the ongoing maintenance work.

Dogs and other animals are not permitted in the flats.

Fire hydrants are situated around St James Park and inspected by Elmbridge Borough Council. However, if you notice that any are defective then please contact Wallakers.

From 1st July 2007 it became law that smoking is not permitted in communal areas of buildings. Consequently we are obliged to enforce a no smoking policy in all communal parts of the flats. The smoking ban does not cover domestic premises though anyone providing a service to you in your home may operate a smoke-free policy for themselves or their employees.
