Description
Wildlife
Sycamore, common lime, hybrid black poplar and silver birch are the most common trees. The shrubbery is tall and dense in places and contains a good proportion of native species, so it represents excellent habitat for birds. Blackbird, wren and blue tit are thought to breed in or nearby the park, and chaffinch and song thrush were also recorded in a recent survey. Swifts can be seen feeding overhead in summer. Where the grass is not too closely cut, a few wildflowers can be found.Facilities
