Dick Whittington Park

The original Centre was called The Mohair Centre after the goats used for their fleece. These were made into items of clothing by the ladies of the Mohair Centre. After the Centre was taken over a name was chosen that could be easily remembered by locals and children so Dick Whittington was used as he was born not far from the Centre. Over the years the Centre has developed into a Leisure Park for children and families to come to visit in the Play Barn and outdoor areas with Nature Walks. Since the loss of the animals the the Park has taken on significant changes. A new Equine Stable has been established as well as a Dog Grooming Parlour in the Court Yard. We will be opening every weekend Saturday and Sunday from 10am-5pm, but closed during the week days accept for School Holidays. So we will be open during October Half Term and over Christmas.
