Impney Park is an expansive estate located in Worcestershire, England. Situated near the town of Droitwich Spa, the park covers a vast area of woodland and forest. It is a magnificent example of natural beauty and tranquility.

The park is renowned for its rich history, dating back to the 19th century when it was originally designed by renowned landscape architect John Claudius Loudon. It was once the grounds of the grand Impney Hall, a magnificent mansion built in the neo-Gothic style. While the mansion sadly no longer stands, the park continues to flourish and captivate visitors with its picturesque landscape.

The woodland in Impney Park is abundant with a diverse range of trees, including oak, beech, and chestnut. The forested areas are intertwined with meandering paths and trails, offering a delightful experience for nature enthusiasts and walkers. The park also boasts a variety of wildlife, making it a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers.

Impney Park is not only a natural haven but also an important historical site. It has been designated as a Grade II listed park and garden, recognizing its architectural and historical significance. The park offers a glimpse into Worcestershire's past, showcasing the elegant design and grandeur of its bygone era.

Visitors to Impney Park can enjoy its serene atmosphere, take leisurely walks, and indulge in a picnic amidst the tranquil surroundings. The park's beauty and historical significance make it a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, providing a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Droitwich Junction Canal - the M5 tunnel Classed as bridge No. 5 this is actually a tight 60 metre long tunnel. The canal at this point carries water from the Body Brook and the headroom is variable through the tunnel. This waterfront is accessible by some steps from the left but is now virtually completely hidden from the nearby road by the growth of vegetation in the last decade or so.
