Secrets of Bradlaugh Fields

A community adventure booklet for an Urban Park in Northampton

Bradlaugh Fields Urban Park is a park for the community - a wildlife haven steeped in local history and set in a landscape that reveals a fascinating geology.

Bradlaugh Barn Association saved a green lung from housing development and with help from volunteer groups and councils they created a new park that has been awarded the prestigious Green Flag certificate every year since 2003-2004.

Our proposal for the booklet we were commissioned to research, write and design was to reflect this passion for involvement through an activity-based approach to discovery. Each of the topics encourages people to investigate, develop new skills and learn a little about their local area.
