Freedom Fields is one of Plymouth's most historic parks. It's close to the Greenbank and Lipson areas of the city, and is around a 15 minute walk from the city centre. Restored in 2000, Freedom Fields has a Green Flag Award and some of the best panoramic views in Plymouth, looking out across Plymouth Sound and beyond. The park has a great sense of community, with many different community events being held each year.
To the west of the park there is a wildflower meadow with bluebells, snowdrops, and wild daffodils. There are lots of other wildflower areas across the city.
