Exciting news on Sculptures

The Ropner Owl is a striking feature overlooking the Ropner Park lake. FoRP has been in talks with Stockton Council to add to the sculptures. There will be three more figures around the lake, a castle, a wizard and a dragon Details

Birds are in abundance in Ropner Park. This cormorant was spotted in a tree overlooking the lake. Parakeets are regular visitors. Tony Crossen sent the photo below
