Booking a park or public space
Leicester has many parks, public spaces and city centre sites, which host activities including major festivals, community events and exhibitions.
As you follow the trail you will learn about the plants and animals that live here, and why the Spinney is such a special place.
The biggest trees in the spinney are Oak and Ash. Oak trees were planted here around 200 years ago, although we know there has been woodland here for much longer. Oak plantations like this were intended to be cut and used as timber, but these ones were never cut. Now they are protected as an important woodland habitat.
