Nice green space with interesting history! See image for the history. It’s quite a wild landscape but it’s coupled with a cafe and some play spaces. Has a nice sense of wilderness and wild life for an otherwise very busy area.

One massive park that will fit several football pitches with loads of space left. Looks good for potentially camping. The Hmp overlooks the park, which is a historical building. Play area for the kids in the first part leading to the main green. Big open space which clearly is popular during the hot summer days.

Lovely place to walk your dogs as many people do. Lots of people excercising, running around the park (approximately 1 kilometer in distance). Equipt with it's outdoor gym and an adventure plaground and small park for children. Surrounded by estates, the locals inhabit this park and do so appreciatively.
