The experience
About this day out
Hampton Meadow is a 25-hectare nature reserve consisting of two fields: Hampton Meadow, a large area of old, traditionally managed hay meadow, and Big & Little Million Common, a smaller area of permanent pasture. The reserve has a nesting pair of Curlew in most years, and winter floods attract flocks of gulls and ducks such as Mallard, Teal and Wigeon, occasionally including Bewick's Swans. It is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
When to go
Opening calendar
