Parks & Nature
Built on a neglected bombsite in the 1970s, this urban oasis is three acres of fun, fur and animal cuteness. We love this working farm for a day out with kids, for lunch at the award-winning on-site café, or for a relaxed stroll. Keeping city kids in touch with nature is a great cause in itself, whilst the Rural Arts Centre showcases trades and crafts that are being used less and less. Genuinely a lovely place to while away a summer’s day.
