Gedling Country Park is a country park in Gedling, Nottingham, England.[1]

History

The park is on the grounds of the former Gedling Colliery, which closed in 1991 and was subsequently used as a civic amenity site before closing to the public. The site was converted into the present country park in 2015.[2] A café and visitor centre, dubbed Café 1899, were opened at the park in 2017 at a cost of £1.5 million,[3] alongside a children's playground themed to the Colliery constructed by playground equipment manufacturer Proludic, at the cost of £200,000.[4]

Facilities

There is a diversity of wildlife, mining heritage, footpaths, trails and woodland.[5] There is bird watching[6] and heritage trails.[7] A Parkrun takes place in the park every Saturday morning at 9am, the course is an undulating single lap figure of eight.[8] A friendly three legged cat called Juno spends a lot of his time saying hello to visitors to the park, chasing dogs and eating chicken sandwiches.[9]
