BEAUCHAMP PARK<br />

Nicholson Street, Chatswood NSW 2067<br />

Your <strong>ECX</strong> editors snooped around Beauchamp Park too, which<br />

is in the upper park of the Scott’s Creek sub-catchment and<br />

is part of the Willoughby Council. The park itself has beautiful<br />

flora and fauna sightings, home to possums and lizards and an<br />

array of birds. (They say you might even be able to spot a flying<br />

fox, if you’re lucky.)<br />

Beauchamp Park is known for its vegetation, and you’ll find<br />

that a lot of the trees actually date back to the original Blue<br />

Gum High Forest. It has a beautiful rose garden and thanks to<br />

the community effort of residents who lived next to the park,<br />

the council decided to restore the Spring Gardens. The new<br />

range of flowers have been carefully selected to not only match<br />

the theme of the park, but also be weather tolerant.<br />

This one’s definitely family friendly, so if you’re looking for a<br />

beautiful, local park where you can let your dogs run to their<br />

hearts’ content – look no further. It’s only a 10-15 minute walk<br />

from Chatswood CBD too, so you can take a nice stroll here<br />

along the spring gardens before checking out the mall markets<br />

by the train station which are open every Thursday and Friday.<br />
