Parks, nature and green spaces
Did you know that over a third of Plymouth is green space? That includes parks, allotments, nature reserves, cemeteries and those neighbourhood greens at the end of your road.
These are important places for people to relax, enjoy nature, take children to play or for sport or recreation. They are essential for the health and well-being of the city.
We look after and develop 950 hectares of these open spaces within the city, working to provide a better cleaner, safer, greener environment and quality of life for the residents of Plymouth.
Parks
We have 26 parks and each one has a profile, map and description.

County Wildlife Sites
County Wildlife Sites (CWS) are areas of land that are rich in wildlife such as a tract of heath, a meadow, a copse or a village pond.
Local Nature Reserves
These are living green spaces which are important to people and support a vibrant wildlife - there are eight in Plymouth.
Sites of Special Scientific Interest
Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) conserve and protect the best of our wildlife, geological and physiographical heritage for the benefit of present and future generations - there are three in Plymouth.
