Belper River Gardens

Beautiful gardens and gentle sou d of horse shoe falls. Visit the Mill museum whilst it is still open and unfortunately will close in the summer due to funding being withdrawn.

Great Location for a Picnic. Take a folding Chair as the Geese make a mess of the grass. Lovely view of the river. well worth parking in Field Lane car park as well and taking a walk up King street. Parking is reasonably priced and on the flat. A tree lined path at the side of Poundland takes you out into the Pedestranized King street. Great varaiety of cafes and shops. Turn left up the hill and on the right you will find the Memorial Gardens. Filled with a great flower display . See Photos

Had a lovely walk around the river gardens, fed the birds which are very friendly and the pigeons land on you and finished off with a lovely ice cream from the van in the car park.

I am a local photographer and this is one of my most favourite haunts. Its somewhere I always suggest to my clients as a location for family, pet or even wedding preshoots. I have even done a wedding shoot here. Stunning grounds, very well kept!

Plenty of interpretation boards to explain the history of this, well-cared for garden. Good children's playground with rocks for kids to scramble

This is a stunning park regardless of the time of year you visit.
Lovely park to have a walk around.

What a gift to the people of Belper, must have been incredible in its day. Well maintained in the shadow of the now deserted mill

Very tranquil, well maintained and beautiful garden with period bandstand. Close to Belper town centre and the historic East Mill. Part of the historic Belper Town Trail
