Reviews
Anita Harris
★★★★★“Small but beautiful urban oasis. It has restrooms (the functional ones are at the front near the toy library, not at the back) and is perfect for a picnic. Walking paths run through, though it won't take long to walk around. There's a pretty gazebo. No playground, but if you head out at Chaucer Crescent there is a playground just across the road.”

★★★★★“A charming little park. The bandstand area is perfect for a kids party which is what we attended today. Nice grassed areas. Very safe for the kids to run around. Ample shade to beat the heat. Brilliant”
