  Beautiful birds. I'm lucky enough to live close by so it's nice to walk over and see them all the time. Very peaceful

  Nottingham Arboretum dates back to the middle of the 19th century and indeed commemorates MP Fergus O'Connor (of Chartism fame) with a statue. An initial promenade from Nth Sherwood St. winds westwards towards the main entrance on Addison St., tunneling under the road and meeting the footpaths further in. The main slope from there is southwestwards towards the main entrance on Waverley Street, next to Waverley House (Trent Uni art dept.). On the way are side aisles of trees, the war memorial section commemorating conflicts in Russia and China, a play area, a toilet block, floral displays, and the bandstand and seating surrounds. At the very bottom a sizeable pond with fountain, fish and reeds, a sad aviary, and a newly-opened cafe in a renovated building by the gate. Once a haven for drug dealers and ne'er-do-wells the Arbo is currently revived and a popular destination for joggers, strollers, prams and those gasping for greenness and fresh air in the inner city. I just wish they didn't keep those poor birds in those vapid cages.

  This is a very pleasant park at anytime of the year. Picnic in the summer. Jog, frizbee or kick a ball around.
