History
Newnham Meadows Park was originally farmland and part of the Newnham Park Estate until the area was developed for housing in the 1980's. Part of the planning consent for the housing development was the provision of park and recreational facilities for the new housing estate originally built by Beazer Homes South West. The park is maintained by Plymouth City Council and has a trim trail and children’s playground, 5 a-side football goals and basket ball hoops.
What is the connection with "Blackadder” you may ask??
The park was officially opened in 1998 by Blackadder actor TONY ROBINSON in a low key affair attended by about 6 local residents (including my wife and children) and council officials.
Tony ROBINSON was in Plympton filming Channel 4's TIME TEAM at the time.
The cache is a magnetic nano containing a log book. Please bring your own pen. It is sufficiently away the park swings and roundabouts but some stealth may be required as this is a popular dog walking area.
