Today we fly across to the M1 Motorway from Sandal Castle a prominent ruin in the story of Wakefield.
Pugneys Country Park is a 250-acre (1.0 km2) park located on the A636 between Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England and Junction 39 of the M1 motorway. It is a Local Nature Reserve.
The area was developed from a former opencast mine and a sand and gravel quarry and was opened to the public in 1985. It is overlooked by Sandal Castle.
The park comprises two lakes, Both lakes are now dedicated as a nature reserve.
The lakes serve as a flood defence by providing an overflow from the River Calder
A 7+1⁄4 in (184 mm) gauge miniature railway, running round part of the larger lake, operates on weekends and bank holidays, and cafeteria facilities are available. There are also designated Barbecue Areas around the lake for your leisure.
The nature reserve is home to a large flock of non-breeding swans, with up to 100 in residence at any time. Along with hundreds of Canada Geese. There are hides available to explore the habitat. A footpath right around the main lake has easy access and suitable for wheelchair users. There are interactive information boards located around the lake to educate children, a small playground which is parent supervised and free to use.
