Lovely little park, plants, trees and wildlife
Having a 3month old puppy I discovered this is the ideal place to get her used to going outside & meeting other dogs. There are paths & open areas to walk through & plenty of 'poo boxes' so no excuses not to clear up after your pet! Altogether a really pleasant area. Well done council.
It was horrible and there was so much deforestation, and it was way to muddy and finally there was basically no path left DO NOT GO THERE
Lovely little woodland walk with the dog, shame some people don't pick up there dog mess!
My dog loves the place. Its level ground so my ankles like it too!!!
Beautiful place to walk your dog, nice n quiet
