What it's like

A small park of about 18 acres, with 0.5 miles of paths. There's a pond and a river, with spots where dogs can swim. It's usually firm underfoot: the ground is mostly sandy soil that drains quickly.

Surrey Heath Borough Council lists it as a SANG, a green space set aside for dog walkers.

Dogs

We couldn't find any published rules about dogs here. That doesn't mean there aren't any, so check the signs when you arrive.

You're responsible for your dog. Before you let it off the lead, read the signs at the entrance, look out for livestock and roads, and make sure it will come back when called.

Where this comes from

Researched online in November 2026. Nobody from Find Dog Walks has checked this place in person. Mud and shade are estimated from geology and woodland maps.
