Beautiful little park, has a small set of picnic benches and also a small play area for children. We come to walk our dog and the park is always full of other friendly dog walkers and is clean and tidy.

Lovely little park, ideal for families with small children, well kept grass area aswell as plat area and picnic tables. Benches spaced out around the path so also good for people who cannot walk too far. Also great for dog walkers

Small park but very good play equipment in a gated enclosed area. There was lots to keep a toddler entertained. Outside of the play area it's really just a common green area with a path so good for dog walking or runners wanting paved area.
