Scrub control work commencing from Monday 2nd of November.

You may see contractors and machinery in and around the park. We ask everyone to follow any
onsite signage and to take care when using the paths and surrounding areas.

Scrub control helps to keep the chalk grassland and open habitats in good condition. It stops scrub and trees from taking over, which allows wildflowers, rare plants and specialist wildlife to thrive, including the skylark and other grassland species.

Thank you for your support and understanding.

As we head into Summer, we’d like to remind visitors that swimming is NOT permitted at any of our sites and to take precautions to prevent fires, helping us protect both people and the natural environment.

During dry conditions, our green spaces and wildlife are more vulnerable, so we kindly ask everyone to take extra care when visiting:
❌ Please don’t enter the water

These actions help safeguard local habitats, protect wildlife, and keep our spaces safe for everyone to enjoy. The wellbeing of our visitors and the natural environment is always our priority, so please plan ahead and take care during hot weather.
