In April we visited Hillfield Gardens in the centre of Gloucester. For an urban park there was an abundance of bird song and flora and fauna. We saw bluebells, hyacinths, daffodils, forget me nots, tulips, daises and a magnificent willow tree as well a beautiful magnolia tree. We heard chiff chaffs, robins, ravens, wrens and saw squirrels running around in the grass. The history of Hillfield Gardens goes as far back as 1867 and in an Italian style. There are some historical monuments in the garden St Mary Magdalen Chapel, Scriven’s Consuit and The King’s Board.
