Trees, trails and monoliths…

A close-up shot of one of the older monoliths in Castle Park…a feast for insects and fungus!

Summer time in Bangor means getting outside and as well as our seashore, we’re blessed with some stunning green spaces which are celebrated every year with our “Love Parks Week” highlighting the nature all around us.

I love trees, in all seasons, of all species and so it was a particular delight to take a dander through a little part of Castle Park with our Tree and Woodland Officer Dylan Freeburn. The full episode is coming soon, but here’s a taster of the exciting times ahead for our woodlands, how volunteers can help with caring for the parks and a quick look at the natural monoliths you’ll find among all those trees!
