 St Thomas Pleasure Grounds (Exeter, UK) 

This is a large park in the St Thomas area of Exeter in the UK. It is maintained by the Exeter City Council as a whole, however, there are small areas which are provided for the local community to grow crops as well as wild flowers. It is split into 3 main areas:

1) Playing field (just a large open green space for dog walkers and sports)

2) Enclosed children's play area which also includes a splash park which is open during the spring / summer

3) Small green area with paths for people who just like a short walk

There are many different tree species within the park - both native and non-native to the UK. The largest specimens are a single Hornbeam, three Field Maple, a single Copper beech and a single Large leaved lime tree. The most unusual tree in the park is a Pride of India which has stunning yellow flowers in the summer.
