Access and Facilities
Brookside will soon be a place for everyone, but there’s a lot to be done to make it more welcoming and accessible.
Here are some of the things that have been happening:
- consultations with local people and groups
- Access Audit
- proposals for entrance improvements and footpath upgrades
- footpath clearance work done by volunteers

An example of a wooden boardwalk crossing a wetland area.
It’s an ambitious project, but here is a flavour of what we plan to offer in the future:
- fully restored footpaths with mobility access, benches and signage
- raised boardwalk with viewing platform overlooking the lodges
- new cycleway and horse riding routes
- eco-information centre – in the village or a green building on site
