3 Next, take a left onto Coniston Road.

4 Follow this road along and take your first left which leads into Scott Park.

5 Take a right when you arrive in the park and shortly after take a left to head to the paved path which runs through the middle of the park. (To make the walk longer you can take a left when entering the park and follow the whole paved footpath around).

Points of interest ¡ Coniston Community Centre is a vibrant and friendly building at the heart of Patchway. The community centre has great facilities including a café, the Link Centre, a wide variety of classes, and rooms to hire. ¡ Gorse Covert – a local nature reserve. Within living memory much of Patchway was farmland. Gorse Covert was a dense piece of woodland providing cover for game animals and wildlife. It was turned into a nature reserve in 2003. ¡ Patchway Greenway is a semi-rural footpath which leads from Patchway Common eastwards to Bradley Stoke. On the north-west fringe of Patchway Estate, a footbridge (known locally as the Banana Bridge) passes over the M5 motorway, and leads to a footpath that passes down over the steep Severn Escarpment into the village of Over. (Not suitable for buggies). W oo dh ou se

Points of interest ¡ Norman Scott Park is Patchway’s original playing field, situated in Coniston Road. The Park is named after Alderman W.N. Scott in recognition of his public service. The Park has football and cricket pitches, a floodlit netball court and 5-a-side football areas. There is a children’s playground and a hard path around the perimeter. ¡ Gorse Covert – a local nature reserve. Within living memory much of Patchway was farmland. Gorse Covert was a dense piece of woodland providing cover for game animals and wildlife. It was turned into a nature reserve in 2003.
