Brynmill Park restoration

The Discovery Centre is complete!

After months of hard work and planning the new Discovery Centre in Brynmill Park opened its doors on Saturday 21st June, 2008.

The Centre provides the park with a focus for exploring its history and wildlife. The large one way glass window enables visitors to view birds in their natural habitat without disturbing them. The building also contains a permanent exhibition about the park and is an ideal base for educational actives.


History of the bid

Recognised by CADW (register of Landscapes, Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales) as a grade II listed Park, Brynmill Park belongs to the Victorian era. Steeped in history and interesting facts, a wealth of information is available.

In 2006, The Heritage Lottery Fund awarded a grant for the restoration of Brynmill Park.

In 1837 a company formed called the Swansea Waterworks Company. They were given parliamentary powers to construct a reservoir at Brynmill.
