What is this place?

Firs Farm Wetlands is a park and wetlands destination in Winchmore Hill (Enfield) — restored watercourses, reed beds, woodland and an orchard, ‘surrounded by a one mile path, accessible by buggies and wheelchairs’. It's a park/wetlands, not a playground: there is no children's play equipment. At the community hub there's a café (open 8am–4pm, seven days a week), accessible toilets, and a sensory & wellness room for neurodiverse children and adults — this room is available by appointment for a charge (organised groups, schools or individuals), not a free drop-in and not a timetabled public session, so check availability and cost before you go. The hub describes a changing facility for disabled people (which it calls the first Changing Places in an Enfield park), but we haven't been able to verify it on the official Changing Places register, so it's shown as not confirmed. There's no on-site parking (street parking on Firs Lane); nearest stations Winchmore Hill (~10 min) and Southgate (~15 min).
