Masons Field

Masons Field is a nature reserve in the London Borough of Brent, covering meadows and various natural habitats. The site adjoins Fryent Country Park and serves as an accessible green space for the local community.

The land was first documented in 1426 when a mason rented the property, and became part of London Transport's recreation grounds in 1927. This connection to the city's transport history continues to shape how it is managed today.

The Barn Hill Conservation Group partners with Brent Council to maintain the reserve through regular wildflower meadow management and habitat enhancement programs.

Visitors can access the reserve through entrances at Larkspur Close and main pathways connected to the adjacent park. Wear comfortable shoes, as paths run through natural meadows and can be uneven.

London Underground Ltd owns and manages this unusual nature reserve, which recently underwent major restoration work to return the land to its natural state. It shows how a transport company can play a role in environmental care.
