Beschrijving
The Meadows is a recreation ground sandwiched between the River Tavy in the South and the Tavistock Canal on it's Nothern edge. Whilst most birds are of commoner species, Waterspreeuw, Grote Gele Kwikstaart and Waterhoen and Wilde Eend can often be found on both river or canal. During harsh Winters especially with freezing conditions on nearby Dartmoor Graspieper and even Buizerd sometimes seek shelter near the park, both Koperwiek and Kramsvogel are annual winter visitors depending on temperature. During Summer the odd Gele Kwikstaart turns up occasionally.

Bedford car park can get extremely busy on market days and on special events such as the annual 'Goosey Fair' and days leading up to Christmas. ALSO NOTE The Tavistock Wharf cinema and concert venue shares the same Bedford car park, which could impact parking spaces later in the day.
