Sherford country park now four times the size

A COUNTRY park at the multi-million pound housing development of Sherford has been boosted fourfold - and will eventually be three times the size of Central Park.

Sherford country park now four times the size

The new section of Sherford's Country Park is now open to the public, expanding the site by 73 acres, turning the current 19 acres to 92 acres. With a stream running through it, plenty of fascinating features, and breathtaking views over the valley, the new park is a stunning slice of South Hams countryside which is free to visit and open to all.

The expansion takes the park to a scale equivalent to 57 football pitches.

Organisers say work has taken place behind the scenes to make the park easy to access, including an accessible new entrance, over two kilometres of new paths, ponds, wildflower meadows, woodlands and more.

Despite its significant scale, the new parkland still has room to grow -the Country Park will eventually span more than 500 acres and integrate into the town via wide planted corridors that sweep into the development.

It is part of the grand green vision for Sherford, which is the result of work by the Sherford Consortium -a partnership between Taylor Wimpey and Vistry Group, which includes Linden Homes, Bovis Homes and Countryside Partnerships.
