Once part of the grounds of Pope’s Manor, this site was acquired by the
Borough Council in 1984 and consists of 13.7 acres of established
parkland, including open grassland, ponds and a copse. Its main aim is
to provide a diverse wildlife habitat and a scenic landscape feature for
visitors to enjoy. Although comparatively small, Pope’s Meadow does
provide several types of habitat and, therefore, quite a variety of
species. There is a play park for young children at the site and also
cycle rack facilities for those who choose to cycle there.
