Wycoller Country Park - Information Sheets

Education and Activity Days

Pepper Hill Barn Information Centre holds displays and exhibitions of Wycoller and the surrounding Countryside and provides information in the form of leaflets and booklets. The Centre is open at the weekend to the Public.

The Education Service
Based at pepper Hill Barn, Lancashire County Council and Groundwork East Lancashire offer an Education Service to visiting groups. A wide variety of activities are available. These are designed to be highly enjoyable whilst meeting the needs of the national Curriculum. The activities range from pond / stream life exploration and mini-beast discovery to Earth Education, environmental games and historical studies. A number of role play programmes have been developed covering habitats, natural recycling and plant life cycles. The Country park has its own orienteering course and tree trail. Sessions can be led by a member of the Wycoller staff or, alternatively, groups can borrow equipment from the Centre. With an indoor class room, lecture room, toilet facilities, kitchen and display area Pepper Hill Barn offers the ideal base from which to explore the Country Park. It is also a desirable venue for workshops, meetings and training days. The lower floor of the barn is accessible to visitors using wheelchairs.

Events and Activity Days
Throughout the year, events and activities are organised at pepper Hill barn and in the Country Park. From environmental arts and crafts to long distance walks and easy rambles there is plenty to get involved in. The Park has been the venue for outdoor theatre productions on a number of occasions. Events programmes are available from County Information Centres and Libraries.
