Record number of London parks awarded Green Flag status

Like Blue Flags but on land, the 2015 Green Flag Awards have just been dished out, recognising the best public spaces in the UK.

Properties with views of a park in the capital are subject to a price premium of up to 59%, says Winkworth in a new bit of research.
