The Bluebells are already in flower, the woodpeckers are drumming, birds are nest building and butterflies are out and about when the sun is shining \u2013 and the forecast for sunshine is good. Join our local guides for a pleasant afternoon stroll around some of Middleton Park\u2019s 600 plus acres.<\/p>\n<p>Join us at 1:30pm this Sunday (19 April) at the Visitor Centre in the park for a walk of approximately 1\u00bd hours, there\u2019s no need to book.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, this walk includes woodland and unsurfaced paths so please wear walking shoes or boots, and don\u2019t forget to wrap up warm and dry. Unfortunately this walk is not suitable for wheelchairs or mobilitiy scooters.<\/p>\n<p>The Visitor Centre is accessed off Town Street, LS10 3SH.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This post was written by <strong>Jim Jackson<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We encourage anyone living or working in South Leeds to use this website to tell their news.
