The park was originally the site of a mill long since demolished. The overgrown site was reclaimed by local residents during lock down to create a community park. Many plants, shrubs and trees were donated by friends and neighbours, transforming the area into a quiet tranquil wildlife haven. We have bees and an allotment where plants are grown for the park and sold to raise funds for the park.
