About

Mouldon Hill Country Park sits on the western edge of Swindon, arranged around Mouldon Hill Lake and the River Ray. Paths run along the lakeshore, through woodlands and across meadow, linking to the town’s outer streets. The lake has a small island that is regularly used by nesting waterbirds, and the shoreline includes shallow inlets and reed margins that change with the seasons. Visitors use the park for walking, birdwatching and informal sport, and there are clear sightlines from the hill down into surrounding fields and housing.

Oakhurst lies immediately east of the park and is primarily residential, with streets and green corridors that step straight onto park paths. The neighbourhood provides several pedestrian entrances to Mouldon Hill and short routes into central Swindon. Local routes along the River Ray and around the lake are used daily by residents for short errands, school runs and leisure trips, so the park functions as both a local recreation area and a link between suburban streets and the town’s wider cycle and footpath network.
