What it's like

A small park of about 30 acres, with 1.1 miles of paths. There's no water for a swim. It's usually firm underfoot: the ground is mostly sandy soil that drains quickly. Most of it is woodland, so there's plenty of shade. A public road runs through it, so take care near the road. There's a car park. Surrey Heath Borough Council lists it as a SANG, a green space set aside for dog walkers.
