New granite paving is being installed at the Church Street entrance near Waterstones, alongside new planters, seating, and upgraded lighting and signage. These upgrades build on the covered mall improvements completed last year, creating a more welcoming space for those arriving at Palace Shopping.

The project is expected to take 12 weeks and will be completed in carefully managed phases to ensure safety and minimize disruption for both shoppers and retailers. Next year, further upgrades will take place in phase 3, with Pearsons/M&S Square set to receive new paving, lighting, and seating.

All retailers will remain open throughout the works, and the management team is working hard to ensure that any disruption to visitors is kept to a minimum. These improvements are part of a wider plan to enhance Enfield Town’s shopping experience, which already includes the covered mall upgrades completed in 2023, such as new toilet facilities and enhanced areas outside Waitrose.

“We’re excited to continue the transformation of Palace Shopping with these latest improvements. Enhancing the Church Street entrance will create a more welcoming and enjoyable environment for visitors, and we’re committed to ensuring that the work is carried out with minimal disruption to our retailers and shoppers. This is part of our ongoing investment in Enfield, ensuring Palace Shopping remains a vibrant and attractive destination for the community.” – Will Ashdown, Asset Manager at RivingtonHark.
