Central Park, Plymouth

Please note:  This site is now full. 

An area of green open space has been selected close to one of the main paths. It is approximately 16,500 square metres in area, bordered by original hedgerows. A range of mature trees already exists throughout the area, giving it an established, parkland setting and some of the old agricultural field patterns can still be seen in the current layout of the whole park.

The Family Tree Scheme in Cornwall is situated close to Treverbyn, a small collection of dwellings near Resugga Green. The site is close to Penrose Farm, a former China Clay Spoil Pit. The whole planting area can be viewed from the ‘Eden Project ‘ access road, running from Penwithick to the ‘Eden Project’ at Bodelva.
