|||
| Woodland |
|
||
| Hinton Park is set in 14 acres and is surrounded by mature woodland. Although many of the trees that have been planted following burials are young and small in size, the huge mature trees provide a wall of woodland around the whole burial ground. The woodland includes a Bluebell Wood. The burial ground area will eventually become new woodland and will continue to support an abundance of wildlife in a natural habitat. | |||

Wildlife | ||
|
Hinton Park is home to a variety of wildlife (deer, rabbits, foxes, etc.)
and birds (woodpeckers, fieldfares, kestrels, etc.).
Bluebell Wood |
|||
| Enhancing the natural beauty of the Park is a mature woodland on the boundary. This is at its best in May when the bluebells are out and the wood is a carpet of blue. | |||
|
|
|||
| Shetland Ponies |
|
||
|
A group of Shetland ponies occupy a large field next to the burial ground.
The Shetland ponies are very friendly towards people and will come right up to the fence to meet visitors. |
