I visited Sherdley Park on Saturday, April 19 and I must say after being there for 10 minutes with two children I won't be bothering for a long time.

Litter was strewn across the field, the rubbish bins were overflowing and to top it off there was a constant whiff of dog muck, which can be smelt from over the opposite side of the park.

It is disgusting.

Is it any wonder some people from this town go out of area for nice days out. I think in future I'll go for a day out at the local landfill for a day out and a picnic instead.
