About

Baffins Pond (at 4.35 hectares) is home to a host of wild fowl and ducks, as well as established reed beds. Also, there's a sand pit and play area, which includes accessible play equipment.

The pond’s main attraction is the large number of ducks and other wild fowl. There are established reed beds and other water plants helping to create a diverse habitat to encourage a wider range of flora and fauna.

The site has also been upgraded to include accessible equipment such as play panels, a sand table and disabled swing seat. Close to Baffins Pond's play area is a basketball court and Goals, for 5-a-side football.

An old compound has been transformed into a base for the Baffins Pond Association, which involves the local community in organised events and projects.

Please note: from time to time, when the risk level of avian flu is raised, visitors are asked not to feed the birds, to help avoid the disease spreading. Look out for signs giving guidance around the pond.
