Sledging in St. Albans
February 7, 2012 – 07:49 | Comments Off

The snow that blanketed St. Albans at the weekend offered plenty of opportunities for sledging. But where are the best places to go sledging in St. Albans? Our top picks have to be the park, just next to the Abbey, and Batchwood Golf Course (seen here). We’ve also gone to the Brickie, off Lower Dagnall Street, in the past but the snow there tends to go a bit bare quickly. There must be some other good spots I’m missing – feel free to add your favourite spot to go sledging in St. Albans in the comments.
