About this path
The town riverside park on the Trent opposite Newark Castle, with surfaced footpaths, play areas and moorings. It is the first place the Trent spills at Newark: footpaths and play areas were submerged in December 2023, and the riverside flooded again at record levels in January 2024 and in January 2026.
