The new headquarters for Horsell Common Preservation Society and Wetland Visitor Centre has now been officially opened as of 9th January 2016.

The building, formerly a mushroom packaging centre for the original owners of the site, has been completely refurbished and now features HCPS’s offices, the Waters Edge Cafe and other community based enterprises.  A major part of the regeneration of the 14 acre site has been the removal of some 150,000 sq ft of derelict buildings to enable the creation of a wetland area complete with viewing platforms/areas for watching birds and other wildlife.

The site is open to the general public 7 days a week for people of all ages to visit and enjoy.  Click on the above links for more information.
