This is a gem of a garden, once belonging to a beautiful manor house, now overlooked by an unattractive block of flats - but don't let that put you off! The original coach-house, Ridleys Court, has (I believe) a small museum and hosts talks and other events of locally historic interest. (There are also public conveniences located here). Lottery money has restored the gardens to their fullest potential with local volunteers and a regular gardening team keeping it at its best. The fountain has been restored to its former glory (usually functioning) and the formal gardens and stately trees are kept beautifully. A firm favourite with local dog walkers, regular "Book in the Park" meets for children and, on certain days, you can catch the local croquet club playing on the impeccably kept lawn. Cross the road and you have the glorious Milton Mount Pond, complete with breeding Egyptian Geese, Great Crested Grebes, Cormorant and Kingfisher among the birdlife to be spotted.
