Additional Information

Bryngarw Country Park is an area of natural beauty made up of wetlands, formal areas, grasslands and woodlands set in over 113 acres. A number of trees in these areas have recently been identified as suffering from ash dieback or have other tree health related issues and, as many of these are situated close to pathways, need attention or to be felled. We recently carried out a survey to assess the necessary works and now require a contractor to undertake this work to ensure that the park remains a safe place for our visitors.
