There are two Pocket Parks in Oundle managed by Oundle Town Council: |
||
|
The Snipe Meadow Pocket Park, situated on the banks of the River Nene to the north of the town, is a very important site for protecting endangered Snipe and Redshank. The meadow is managed to provide nesting sites for wildlife and to minimise disturbance. |
|
|
A recently installed boardwalk enables access to a beautiful part of the river for those who would normally be unable to visit such a site. |
|
|
|
New Road Pocket Park at the Recreation Ground is an example of local people turning the town's recreation ground into a Pocket Park by means of habitat creation, wildlife interpretation and community involvement. Natural features alongside the play equipment have created an environment that encourages wildlife. |
