Lower Kem Mill Pond

Highlight • Lake

Cuerden Valley Park is a precious emerald surrounded by increasing urban development. As a country park it is differently managed from places such as Witton Park and Beacon Fell being run by a trust rather than a local authority. Its 650 acres were originally part of the estate of Cuerden Hall one time home of the Towneley Parker family. (Cuerden Hall )It is thanks to the Trust and the voluntary effort of a friends group that Cuerden Valley Park has managed to withstand the pressures of modern life to offer a haven for wildlife and a place for people to exercise and relax. Broadly the park is a green corridor between Wigan Road (A49) and the A6 running north to south following the course of the River Lostock for about 2 ½ miles. At its widest it is about half a mile. It has a beautiful pond with plenty of wildlife and fish the path can get a little bumpyso gravel or MTB would be best.
