Aug 23 I am a real enthusiast for this park. It's big enough that a circular walk around the edge is a gentle half hour. There is an avenue of trees, many of them horse chestnuts. There are some triangular plant beds that have non standard plants in. There is a real meadow with minute hay stacks showing conservation in action. There is a fairly large children's play area surrounded by a fence. Although I'm not a dog person, this is clearly a great place for dog walking. I always leave visits here more relaxed than I arrived.

East Town Park Centre, Coupals Road Haverhill CB9 7UR: Parking is free and the park is open until 8 00. There are toilets here and a place where you can get small snacks and drinks where you can eat in or out. The park has a play area for children which is fenced off. There is a picnic area too Walking with dogs on a lead or just strolling around the area is pleasurable. It is well kept, tidy and rubbish free. There are places near with a river, bridges and biodiversity areas and signage to help. I am told events are held here too. Visited on St George's Day where a medieval renactment by 'The Companye of Merrie Folke' was taking place. Entrance to see their programme was a modest £4.00. Anyone wishing to use the park as usual and its facities were free to do so. There was music, a puppet show, dancing story telling and singing. Those taking part were able to tell their own historical story besides all their collection of artefacts. All in all a good day out. If you want to know more about this company look them up of Facebook under their old English name

Even though it wasn't the best weather it was still lovely walking about and exploring and enjoying the views. I've been in the summers and its a terrific cheap day out for families, lots of paths and wooded areas to explore. Make it fun with the kiddies by turning over logs and looking for bugs 🐛🐌🐜🐞🕷🪱. Wonderful park with something for all ages children and grow ups as you can see grandad enjoyed himself. Also finishing off by visiting the shop for a cuppa or a ice lolly. Ample parking which is really close and paths for wheelchairs.

Exploring our new town and found this lovely location near the Haverhill golf club. Great for waking your dog(s) fabulous for kids and families all round!

Lovely park, free parking, good signage to find it, good toilets too. Some of the paths are pushchair friendly too so you can go from the car park, round the play area and round the flower beds easily. Some lovely bits to see the river safely too and lots of picnic benches. The play area was a bit busy when we went because the one for the older kids was closed (& it was the bank holiday), but a really nice play area.
