Lovely, small park unfortunately spoiled somewhat by the odd inconsiderate dog walker and their canine 'presents'. The park offers a number of short walks, and is short enough not to ever to get lost. Sometimes the less frequently used walks get overgrown, but there is a pretty little stream. Calling it a nature reserve is slightly ambitious, but it is nice to have 'wild' green spaces

Really nice reserve featuring a disused quarry and lots of trails to walk. There are some rare species of butterfly to spot as well as many birds. I find it just nice to walk around the quarry as there are some lovely views over the area. I have seen mountain bikers also riding the trails which looks great fun.

Only just discovered this nature park - enjoyed the walk round but sad it looks rather abandoned not many clear pathways and the entrance isn't very clear - maybe it'll look better in the spring.

A wonderful Nature Reserve, it doesn't spoil you with well kept pathways and coffee shops. Retaining its natural beauty, No Toilets, No Car Park, (although it is next to a huge shopping complex as well as lots of supermarkets and cafés.

Sadly a lack of investment has seen it neglected, but locals in the area have been working hard to keep it accessible by pushing back the thorns from the trails a little, as well as regular clean ups.

Lovely place to walk with alot of variation of terrain but it's a really sad scene to see all the burned bushes that children who have been clearly neglected by there parents thought it would be a fun thing to which it clearly isn't.

Nice walk through something that was diffrent. Takes you up to the roundabout on the main road then follow the bypass back to civilisation. Hello again.

Lucky enough to live next to the quarry, despite the increased development ruining the land nearby, this place has been a quite reserve for many local animals and people. It makes for a beautiful walk, one of which I've walked many times this past years. I've grown up playing in the quarry and loved every moment
