Comprising both open sports fields and shady wooded parkland, Hilbert Recreation Ground is a great place to walk and enjoy a natural setting in the heart of Tunbridge Wells.
The two football pitches provide an opportunity to kick a ball around, while the skate park can also be used by BMX riders and for rollerblading. King George’s Field provides a wide expanse of grassland for any number of activities.
If you follow the surface paths, you’ll also find a tranquil zone featuring 5 hectares of ancient woodland including a wetland area which has been designated as a Local Nature Reserve. The abundance of bird and insect life has been helped by the re-introduction of coppicing, carried out thanks to a small army of local volunteers.
Grosvenor Recreation Ground is adjacent to the site, the two together forming a large open area to be explored – to Hilbert’s woodland and open spaces you can add Grosvenor’s play area and duck pond, bowling green, junior sports facilities and cafe.
The Friends of Grosvenor and Hilbert Park group is a great source of information on the history of the park and the many community events held there – to find out more go to www.fogh.org.uk.
