For a park owned by a Council [which normally fills me with forboding] they are making a slow but steady job of restoring this place to a fair level of tidiness and authenticity. Water features are working, the areas nearer the House are reasonably well cared for and with some good signing. Further way from the house, up the valley, there is evidence of work being carried out to bring under control a lot of over grown and neglected landscape.
I visited this place about two years ago and can see improvements. It has a lot going for it.
