This stretch of green-belt used to be a field that was below the level of the nearby main road (A3022). When the adjacent Brokenbury Waste Water Treatment Works were built, all the ground soil was dumped here to allow the works to be sunken and tucked away out of sight, thus creating this park with the addition of new tree planting.
Brokenbury provides full biological sewage treatment and ultra violet disinfection for the whole of Torbay. Brokenbury is a state-of-the-art treatment works that treats 10 million gallons of effluent a day and has vastly improved bathing water quality by removing the need for crude sewage outfalls within the area.
