Beautiful Lake in the Deer Park on the Woollaton Hall Estate. A lovely mellow walk around through trees, much nicer than you may expect

The 25-acre lake was originally created in the late 18th century as part of the landscaping of the Wollaton Park estate. The lake was formed by damming a small stream that ran through the park, creating a picturesque body of water that became a focal point of the park’s landscape. A map of 1886 reveals the lake planted with trees and shrubs, including Conifers, Pines, Yews and Rhododendrons. Their dark colours chosen to maximise reflections in the lake. The Yews have largely died off replaced by Sycamores and self-set Alders.

Highfields Park was part of an estate built and landscaped in the late 18th and early 19th century. In 1920 Sir J Boot bought the estate and used it as the site of the East Midlands University (now Nottingham University). Highfileds House became part of the university and is currently used as a staff annexe. The landscape was re-modelled to suit the setting, with the joining of the fishing pond and small boating lake to become the larger lake we see today. The public can walk around Highfields Park. The circuit of the lake is a nice, gentle walk within the city.
