Memory Garden

Our Memory Garden is situated at the northern end of Chatsworth Park.  You can purchase a small plaque from us to be placed on one of the posts with your own wording, to remember a partner, child, friend or even a beloved pet.  There is a small central mound where residents are encouraged to plant anything of their choice.  There are a couple of benches to sit and reflect in this tranquil setting.

It is now also possible to purchase a memorial bench to be placed in Chatsworth Park.  Further information and order forms can be found below:

Chatsworth Park

Chatsworth Park is a beautifully tranquil site which combines large open grassed spaces, lovely wooded areas, 2 children’s playgrounds and a memory garden. We ask that you help us to maintain this area by bagging and binning your dog’s poo and placing litter in the bins that are provided throughout the park.

We  have a lovely cafe concession, Wander Coffee, situated in the car park off Park Avenue who serve delicious cakes and savouries and hot/cold drinks on Wednesday to Sunday from 10am to 4pm, weather permitting. Why not go along and give them a try.           Thank you

The Copse

The Copse is located between Telscombe Cliffs Way and Bush Close.    The entrance at Telscombe Cliffs Way is on level ground, but there are steps at the Bush Close end which are due for improvement in mid to late August 2022.

It is a delightful small wooded area that has a central pathway leading through it.

All trees in The Copse are subject to a tree preservation order.
