02 Jun 2019 - May half term family fun at Buckland Park Lake

Buckland Park Lake is not scheduled to fully open to the public until 2020.  Buckland Estate is planning to host a small number of private ticketed seasonal family events in 2019.  The first of these events will take place during the May half term between 25th May and 2nd June. A description of the event can be accessed via clicking here.  These “taster” events will increase awareness of the site prior to the full opening of the site to the public. A small allocation of free tickets has been set aside for Buckland residents and these can be applied for on a first come first served basis by calling the Buckland Estate Office on 01737 844879.

08 Sep 2019 - Buckland Pond Clearance and Village Tidy

Please keep Sunday 8th September 2019 free to turn out and participate in the annual pond clearance and village tidy.

Please meet us by the Pond in time for a short safety briefing at 10am from Simon Elson, a Reigate Area Conservation Volunteer who leads our activities for the Village Pond and Green.

If you are keen to help in the pond, bring waders (if you can), a spade, a bucket (or plastic trug) and a wheelbarrow.

There will be tasks suitable for volunteers who would prefer to help with tasks on dry land, so come along armed with your favourite gardening gloves and hand tools to help.

If you do not feel you can make it to the pond on the 8th but are willing to volunteer to help to undertake other tasks on our “to do list” please let us know.
