East Brighton Park / Sheepcote Valley
The attraction of East Brighton park is the feeling of open space - the wide open expanses of grass give you an air of freedom, with local nature reserve Sheepcote Valley beyond. The park covers approximately 60 acres just behind Brighton Marina and is also the home to Whitehawk F.C. who play in the Sussex County league division one.

Don't miss this.....
East Brighton Park is home to one of the biggest and most dramatic municipal bulb displays in the country. 420,000 bulbs were planted in the autumn of 2008 to give a continuous but changing display of colour from February through to May. The park is also home to a new woodland plantation containing hundreds of new saplings which were planted as part of a ‘Trees for Cities’, a mass tree planting event involving schools, businesses and local volunteers. As the saplings mature into woodland, further plants will be added to enhance the site, in keeping with the natural development of the new woodland.
You can also Dedicate a Bench at this park.
