Cedars Park

Cedars Park is a 16th century historic public park, standing on the original site of Theobalds Palace, in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, a leading example of Prodigy House architecture and later the favourite residence of King James I. As a result, this small local amenity carries significant historical and national heritage value.

Theobalds Palace is regarded as a highly influential Jacobean royal palace and one of the most elaborate estates of its time. During the English Civil War, the palace was demolished for its materials to support the troops and only remains of some walls and outbuildings are extant today.

The modern park is a popular local green space and community hub and includes contemporary features in keeping with the history and grounds of the Royal Palace that stood here.
