Folly Country Park

The main entrance to the park is signposted from Park Road just past the turning to Volunteer Way. Follow the track behind the RAC garage until you reach the entrance, where there is space for parking.

The park is an area of natural open space with a small fishing lake, picnic and park benches.
The gravel track surrounds the lake and winds slightly uphill to an exit leading onto the Nursery View estate. From here you can walk out to the Stanford road and on to Folly Hill.

The pond is managed by Faringdon Fishing Club, who issue permits for fishing there and maintain this part of the park.

The park was extended in 2012 to include a new cricket pitch and pavilion for Faringdon cricket club, a rugby pitch for Faringdon Rugby Club and a splendid skatepark. In 2014 a pavilion and courts for Faringdon Tennis Club.

VWHDC are responsible for the maintenance of the Folly Country Park.
