The Cistercian monks from the Cymer Abbey, Llanelltyd originally gave the site to Barmouth’s residents for leisure purposes and, after a period as a landfill site, in 2005 the urban green site that we see today was created next to the football field. Hundreds of trees were planted, including oak, apple trees, mountain ash, broom willow, wild flowers which attract insects, birds and animals. An ideal site for families to walk and relax.
