Wedding ceremonies

One of the Council’s larger open spaces, Tusmore Park offers a combination of beautiful scenery and leisure activity. A large grassed area at the park’s gate entrance provides an ideal location for a wedding ceremony. Further into the park, a wooden and Cobblestone Bridge allow for scenic wedding photo opportunities. Due to the children’s play areas, tennis courts and wading pool, Tusmore Park is a popular destination for residents in the summer months.
