Longhill Park
Longhill Park is a 23 acre (9.3 ha) former refuse site site in the Parish of Winkfield, east of Bracknell town. Situated between Long Hill Road and Harvest Ride, the site has been reclaimed for wildlife and public recreation.
The open and wooded areas make this site popular with dog walkers, families and children. An official opening of newly-refurbished play areas took place in the summer of 2007 and the site is also host to the largest Skate Park in the Borough. More information on Longhill BMX/skatepark.
Longhill Park is a designated local Wildlife Heritage Site. The main open area is managed as a hay meadow with a wide range of flora and fauna, whilst other areas include scrub, valuable old hedgerows and oak woodland at the western edge. The bullfinch, one of Bracknell Forest's Biodiversity Action Plan species, can be seen regularly at this site.
The main car park for the site is accessed from Long Hill Road. There are four pedestrian access paths to Long Hill Park, as follows:
- At the junction of Long Hill Road / Harvest Ride
- The northern point of Harvest Ride
- The rear of Timline Green
- The rear of Milman Close.
The site is generally flat and reasonably accessible for the mobility-impaired.
Cycling is permitted along the track to the south west of the site.
