Park Information

This wet meadow lies adjacent to the River Mimram, which runs through Old Welwyn. Managed by cattle grazing and cutting, it represents a rare habitat in Hertfordshire.

Singlers Marsh comprises a section of regionally important chalk river and low woodland meadows. The mosaic of grassland, willow scrub, and more mature trees attract a wide range of wildlife especially plants of wet meadows, insects, and birds. In the summer months it is also home to visiting wildlife.

The marsh can be accessed via several kissing gates along Fulling Mill Lane.
