Was looking for a nice place for a walk when visiting Bury area. Easy to find, plenty of parking and well marked walking area. Nice walk along river. Lots of dog walkers in the open areas. Art installations here and there. there is a pub and a small ice cream shop/cafe. Had take away from the cafe and ate at one of the many picnic tables. Worth a visit.

Stay in the caravan site by the park. It was a lovely area to spend a long weekend or day. There is a cafe and a pub in the park, as well as picnic table. Just before the park there is a playground and an ice cream parlour. On our last we found a lovely little walk behind the cafe and for train buffs there is the east lancs railway.
