Burrs Country Park features a wide variety of different wildlife habitats – woodland, open space, wetland, ponds and waterways. The park is a great place to visit, an ideal spot for a range of activities including walking, fishing, picnicking, bird watching and nature study. There is a Caravan Club site which can accommodate 80 pitches for caravans and tents. Burrs Country Park owes part of its existence to Bury’s industrial past, many remnants of which still exist today.
