I went for a stroll in the Country Park off Crowborough Hill. I normally have low expectations of these types of parks in the middle of towns, expecting litter, graffiti etc.. but it has been done really well and is well maintained. It is not too long a walk, but a good place to spend half an hour while the sun is shining.

    The Country Park is quite pleasant, and is actually one thing (the only thing?!) the Town Council have got right. My one complaint is that there is no connection between the Country Park and the footpath that runs from Farningham Road to Mount Pleasant, although it may be that there are private gardens in the way.

    I (new to the area) also stumbled upon the park and was impressed. Seems to be a fair bit of negativity around. I have asked around re things to do/places to go and found the park by fluke.

    Agreed, I live nearby to the park and I love it.

    I have lived in Crowborough all my life and spent many a happy hour there when it was the old Quarry and lower down, the Brick Yard.

    I think what they have done is superb and should be commended for it. There is obviously still work going on and it's being maintained very well.

    One very very minor gripe, if you have a buggy/pushchair it can be very difficult to get through the gates especially at the lower end. Like I said, a minor gripe.

    A photo I took at the country park recently that I quite like:

    I should have a look. I used to live at the end of Hilders Farm close and it was primarily used as a dog toilet then.
