Description

Trefusis Park (also called locally Tippy Park, due to it being a landfill site).

(1). The main road to the South of the site is regularly prone to severe flooding. Because of this problem the main part of the centre of the park is going to be transformed into a seasonal wetland, that will hold back water during prolonged rainfall and gradually release it over time. This work is due to start in late 2025.

(*). The area marked with a STAR is strictly private and is NO longer part of the park.
