Grassland

We have three standards of grass management currently

Formal recreations standard – areas such as sports pitches.

Amenity standard – grassland mown to achieve a smart and presentable ‘formal park’.

Biodiversity Grasslands – you will see mown pathways and river viewing points through areas to with less intensive cutting regimes. This allows access to the public to enjoy routes through the park while encouraging greater biodiversity such as wildflowers and insects. Most will be treated as hay meadow where grass will be cut and removed in July / August followed by an after-cut in Sept / Oct to leave tidy.
