Why go

Cannon Hill gives a city visit room to slow down without making a countryside excursion. The designed parkland, lake and woodland offer different lengths of walk, and surviving features such as the bandstand help explain its Victorian origins. The contrast between formal planting and conservation areas shows how recreation and nature share this urban landscape.

What to look for

  • An ornamental lake sits within formal parkland.
  • A historic bandstand and bridge survive in the park.
  • Conservation areas and woodland offer further walking routes.

Useful to know

  • Choose an entrance that suits your onward journey; the park has several.
  • Check gate-closing notices before starting a longer circuit.
