Course Status
- Last checked October 2023 … everything OK, ready for half-term activities.
- Previously, broken post BB has been replaced in situ, and post Q is now a plaque on the new gate into the memorial trees area.
- September 2022 – cycle tracks, new MTB areas and a new BMX area appear to be complete, and the map has been updated accordingly.
- New! We’ve picked this ideal-for-beginners park to create a Training Pack to go with the How-To Videos.
- New! You can now record your run using the MapRun App on your Smartphone. Score points and share your results too. Buy the MapRun bundle. See the Smartphones page for details.
- Note that the Hall Gardens (separate map) have been re-opened (9am-8pm says the notice) despite ongoing repair work on the hall, though Q is currently inaccessible due to what looks like temporary fencing
