A great space to spend time. It's mainly the football pitches, Bathgate Thistle matches on a Sat/Sun morning when grandson has a game or the play park to meet up with some friends.

Lovely place to relax for time out, well kept areas, though, maybe have to watch for the odd golf ball flying

Good football pitches, only bad thing is that they're always waterlogged and there's no drainage.
