Very good place for dogs to run, although there are a few Badger holes around. (Holes made to dig up worms). Nice fenced off playground for kids)

A recreation ground with a small playground. The playground contains swings for both younger and older children, a roundabout, slide and climbing frame and rope bridge and a see saw. Plenty of grass areas for playing games. Also home of the Dore Gala in the summer.

A great place to walk with the family and friends play on the swings well maintained clean and safe to walk the dogs although the top field can be a little wet sometimes under foot as the stream that cuts through the middle causes it to be boggy
