Horsted Green Park, Wealden’s latest open access countryside area, will be officially opened on Wednesday, September 18 at 2pm by the council vice chairman Ron Reed. Everyone is welcome to attend.

The park is in 74 acres of rolling Wealden countryside on the western edge of Uckfield and provides an alternative recreational space to Ashdown Forest.

Wealden’s landscape cabinet member Cllr Ann Newton said: “Horsted Green Park is an excellent place for ramblers, dog walkers and nature lovers. It is open countryside looking over Uckfield and High Weald with three different waymarked paths and range of different natural features including wild flower meadows, orchards, ponds and woodland.
