Baffins Pond Summer time

Baffins Pond Portsmouth



Baffins Pond



A 4.35 hectare area home to a host of wild fowl and ducks and established reed beds in the pond area. Also, a sand pit and play area, which includes accessible play equipment. Grain to feed ducks can be purchased from shops near by.

The pond’s main attraction is the large number of ducks and other wild fowl that people of all ages come to feed. Please only feed the birds grain - it is essential for the well-being of the birds and to maintain a healthy pond.

There are established reed beds and other water plants helping to create a diverse habitat to encourage a wider range of flora and fauna. There is a large play area with equipment for all ages and a sand pit. The site has recently been upgraded to include accessible equipment such as play panels, a sand table and disabled swing seat. Close to the play area is a ball-court with basketball and 5-a-side goals and the grassed field also has 5-a-side goals.

An old compound has been transformed into a base for Baffins Pond Association who involve the local community in organised events and projects.
