A delightful place with benches, softly flowing water. Has some facilities including a playground and some basketball hoops. Is dog friendly and has a picnic area.

Overall a lovely park to enjoy in Port Talbot. Shame about the kids playpark as it's always a bit grubby and litter lying around. The grounds are pleasant and relatively clean and well kept. Shame to see the bandstand just left to ruin. Hopefully something will be done with it soon.
