Description

Radford Park is reasonably wooded with open grassland, it has a freshwater lake that can hold Fuligule morillon and Fuligule milouin. The barrage at the northern end divides the freshwater lake with the sea water Hooe Lake. Both areas are reasonably sheltered and can hold more unusual and nationally rare species. When there is rough weather in sea areas especially in Plymouth Sound close to the West many birds seek shelter here.
