    We made good friends with this local seagull. Unfortunately despite a few attempts he wouldn't listen to our suggestions to get off the car...

    Superb ground smack in the centre of blenhiem. Excellent viewing grand stand and generous hospitality from the local club. Very interesting Wairau cricket club memorabilia on the walls.

    I often stop in the car park to make a call or just relax... This park is used for much, shortcut to reedwood street , cricket ground, picnics, just to lie down on grass ... Park bit of a icon for BLENHEIM.

    It's a park... There is a few cricket pitches a couple of swings and a couple of netball courts. Not the fanciest but it gets the job done
