Burrs Country Park lies on the River Irwell covering an area of 36 hectares of scenic countryside, one mile North West of Bury town centre.
Burrs has again been awarded Green Flag accreditation for 2007/08. They feature a wide variety of different wildlife habitats - woodland, open space, wetland, ponds and waterways.
The park is a great place to visit, an ideal spot for a range of activities including walking, fishing, picnicking, bird watching and nature study. For the more adventurous there is an assortment of outdoor pursuits available at Burrs Activity Centre and there is also a Caravan Club site which can accommodate 80 pitches for caravans and tents.
The park owes part of its existence to Bury's industrial past, many remnants of which still exist today.
