FLetcher Moss is a great place to wander around on a balmy sunday afternoon...to walk off a pub lunch or just hang with friends. The little cafe at the top serves delicious home-made cakes at weekends in the summer and is a nice pit-stop for a treat. Make sure you check out the botanical gardens, and some of the unusual sculpture-style benches dotted about. There's nowhere to shelter if it chucks it down tho so be sure to take a brolly just in case...it is Manchester after all!!!

This park is definitely more for the older generation, as it's less of a “playing field” park, and more of a park where you can go for a long walk and explore. And with a wooded area and access to the River Mersey, Fletcher Moss park has plenty to do just that. The jewel in the crown is definitely the botanical gardens, with many rare plants are housed. This really is a must-visit park in South Manchester.
