Barnet FC plans to return to its borough with a new stadium designed to better integrate into the local environment. After playing at The Hive Stadium for a decade, the club's updated plans, spearheaded by chairman Anthony Kleanthous and AndArchitects, reveal a stadium with a capacity of 7,000 located in the south section of Barnet Playing Fields. This move allows for enhanced biodiversity and rewilding features. Despite these advancements, some residents express concern over the control of the Green Belt land and benefits to non-football fans.
The plans for the stadium, to the south of the original location, allow for more rewilding and biodiversity features whilst better blending the stadium into the local environment.
This latest iteration of the stadium design comes after two public consultations were held in November. However, some residents remain concerned that Barnet Playing Fields is located within the Green Belt.
