"A nice peaceful green area to walk in to have some time to yourself. So many wild plants growing"

"Pics show signs of recovery. Small birds were interested in badly burnt, scorched earth. I assume feeding was the reason, but on what I am at a loss to say. A bit of rain can be a a thing of magic.
No6June 2024 pyramid orchids are appearing and common broomrape was also spotted."

"Since the fire in August 2022 when a lot of the ground cover was destroyed the green has come back to life. Late in the same year pathways were laid which gives a much better walk in all weathers from the old muddy tracks. Once you are down there it is hard to believe you are in the middle of a city."
