Enjoyable and quiet... benches at short intervals along the paths. Some parts not really pushchair accessible .. theres not a large area to cover but ideal for just a short walk

Nice little walk round with the dog, with either a nice simple loop around or with paths through towards Carlton, Athersley or Monk Bretton depending on where you start! Has been unkept for quite a few years now - with the pond at the Carlton side having been left to waste, and the benches left to rot (after being vandalised).. although the benches have been taken care of for now!
