Endcliffe and Bingham Parks

From Hunters Bar you can follow Porter Brook through a string of parks and walk all the way into the Peak District. Endcliffe and Bingham are the first two parks along the way. There are a lot of trees in Endcliffe park. The bowling greens are in Bingham park.

Botanical Gardens: Conservatory

The conservatory has recently been done up. When I was little these buildings housed aviaries and an aquarium. More recently they've been empty, but now they've be restored and filled with exotic plants.
