Known locally as Parkhill, it is a large park with varied landform, magnificent veteran tree avenues and a fenced play area with picnic facilities. The site has steeply sided woodland areas alongside the meandering Polmont Burn, and large rolling parkland areas with specimen trees. A main path crosses the park from south-east to north-west, and a smaller path crosses the burn towards the north-east. Many different features contribute to the interest of the park such as the burn, the woodlands, the play facilities, the parklands and the historical setting of the site.
