Baffins Pond

The pond’s main attraction is the large number of ducks and other wild fowl that people of all ages come to feed. Please only feed the birds grain - it is essential for the well-being of the birds and to maintain a healthy pond.
There are established reed beds and other water plants helping to create a diverse habitat to encourage a wider range of flora and fauna.
There is a large play area with equipment for all ages and a sand pit. The site has recently been upgraded to include accessible equipment such as play panels, a sand table and disabled swing seat.
Close to the play area is a ball-court with basketball and 5-a-side goals and the grassed field also has 5-a-side goals.
An old compound has been transformed into a base for Baffins Pond Association who involve the local community in organised events and projects. See the ‘External Link’ for their website.
