Description
BRADGATE PARK is situated in the Charnwood Hills of Leicestershire, England. It was first enclosed as a deer park around 800 years ago, and was also the home of the Lady Jane Grey, who became a reluctant Queen of England and who ruled for only 9 days before having her head chopped off by Elizabeth the first.
The Park extends to 830 acres of publicly accessible countryside and has a wild and rugged aspect that you do not expect to find so close to the city of Leicester with dramatic rocky outcrops and gnarled old oak trees, many of which are well over 500 years old. The lower part of the Park is easily accessible with a tarmac driveway running through the middle that is mainly traffic-free and suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs. The River Lin runs through the Lower Park and is a popular spot to sit and picnic or just sit and watch the Red and Fallow deer
