Murton park has something for all the family to enjoy.
Take your time to wander around the Four Seasons and Livestock Buildings, the fields and pens (with animals in abundance, guaranteed to keep the children enthralled), Brigantium the Roman Fort, Danelaw Village and the Celtic Roundhouses - recreated period buildings (where you might just bump into a Roman, Viking or Saxon) and the Derwent Valley Light Railway with its working engines (Sundays only).
