Description |
The largest park in the Borough. It has been awarded a Green Flag for the last 12 years. The park hosts a large number of events throughout the year including the annual Hemlock Happening, fun fairs, arts and sports events. The park can be broken down into a series of areas: Open Park Land This is an area comprising over 250 mature trees, many of which are significant because of their age and size. The parkland includes a children's play area, trim trail, cycle route, tree trail and car park. Play Facilities One of the most popular attractions at the park is the children's play area, which caters for a wide range of age groups. Children's needs and expectations are also well served by the woodland (an informal play area in itself), the sundial maze within the Walled Garden and the large expanse of open grassland for unrestricted imaginative play. Walled Garden This is the most recent development on the park and includes:
Holocaust Memorial Garden Created in late 2000, the garden was officially opened on 27 January 2001. It contains a striking statue created by Naomi Blake, herself a survivor of the holocaust. It is complimented by a series of information panels and a backdrop of plants that were chosen to provide colour and form at the time of the annual reflection ceremony. A memorial service is held in the garden every year in late January. Woodland An area which is mainly broad-leaved woodland. The land rises steeply up from the parkland offering panoramic views of the adjacent countryside. The woodland has its own management plan prepared in conjunction with Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust. Bramcote Hills House The House was built in 1805 and was set in a position to take advantage of the natural terrain with views out to the surrounding countryside. It was demolished in the 1960's. Part of the building's footprint has been restored.

The Erewash Valley Trail runs through the park. This is part of the circular walking and cycling route which takes in over 30 miles of waterway and countryside on the Nottinghamshire.
