Nice park with stream/brook running through. Has a pkay ground and water park area for the children. Ducks on the lake. There is a war memorial depicting a bar chart showing the amount of lives lost during the first and second world wars. Well worth a visit.

Lovely park, well maintained, and a variety of interesting trees. Lovely to see so many ducks. Nice big play area for children, a stream running around the perimeter, and a fantastic cafe. Parking in the vicinity can be tricky and the small car park has a height restriction.

Went to see the new kapax bridge , in the park , the park grounds as of April were still under construction, but it's a lovely way to get from one side of Worcester to the other , the path near the river is still a rough foot path through the woods not suitable for wheelchairs, also likely to be very wet and muddy if it's raining or has been . , the park is one of the best equipped in Worcester tennis court ping pong table splash pad , normally an ice cream van if nice weather, parking can be a pain, soon to be a coffee shop , well worth a visit any age ww2 memorial is a must see just to understand how the art install lays out a very scary thought, enjoy.
