Barton Farm Country Park — Attraction in Bradford-on-Avon

Loved this place. It is just outside Bradford upon Avon. We had breakfast in B upon A then walked around the little town. There were signs to a river walk, which we took and this was Barton Farm Country Park. There was a children's playground there and an old tithe barn there, that use to be used to store the produce that was grown in the fields around it. There were lots of boards around the barn pointing out what went on in the barn when it was in use. We then went to a craft area, little shops with local crafts being made, which you could purchase. Then we reached the river, which was lovely. The path was wide and firm to walk on and not muddy. We noticed, if we looked up the bank on our left, we could see narrow boats and people walking up there. We wondered if we would join it if we kept walking, and a little further on we did, so we didn't have to go back the way we came. The path by the canal was a bit muddy, so you needed wellies or walking boot really, but we managed in ordinary shoes, by jumping over some of the more muddy areas. There were lots of narrow boats, people out walking and also people fishing. It was a wonderful walk up to a lock at the end and there was a bridge. The walk back to the town wasn't far at all and we enjoyed it so much we will...

It's Autumn 🍁. The path that Runs down beside the river through the country park is often flooded.

The path needs walkers to wear Wellies.

Not suitable for wheelchairs or people who have difficulty walking.

Sheep are still in the park by the orchards heading down to the weir and Pub.

The trees have changed colour quickly and the river is fast flowing. Be careful as it is very dangerous if you get too close.

A beautiful walk and a lovely walk back along the canal.

Beautiful light this time of year.

You can see the maze construction clearly and another willow...

Fantastic place. Great playground for the kids, an amazing section of water which is great for kids and dogs - on any warm day it is usually full of people paddling.

The walks are nice, and the Tythe Barn is amazing.

Lots of open space so if you want a picnic then it's great for that too

Parking is either in a small car park near the Tythe Barne, but this fills very quickly. The main station car park is the main option.

This is a go to for us to take the kids where they can enjoy the water and the walks and...
