The Meadows isn't a gorgeous, beautiful park, it's more subtle than that. Because the area is used by 100s of people for loads of different reasons, there's a real feeling of community and a spectrum of human life.
It's a great place for people-watching, as families stroll together, games of frisbee/football/rugby get underway, old ladies chatter, others read books, and the police box does a roaring trade in posh coffee.
As you meander through the Meadows, a number of different tree-lined pathways ('walks') are on offer to you: Jawbone Walk features the dried-out jaw of a whale acting as an archway at one of its end and it's this kind of gentle charm that warms you to the place.
