Wild Park is a 239.8-hectare (593-acre) Local Nature Reserve adjacent to Lewes Road in Brighton, East Sussex. It is owned and managed by Brighton and Hove City Council.[1][2] It includes Hollingbury Castle, an Iron Age hillfort which is a Scheduled Monument,[3] and Hollingbury Park golf course.
The park has views over Brighton. Species-rich chalk grassland is managed by sheep grazing. There is extensive woodland with a network of footpaths, large areas of scrub and a dew pond.[4]
On 9 October 1986, two nine-year-old girls, Nicola Fellows and Karen Hadaway, were murdered by 20-year-old local roofer Russell Bishop in the Babes in the Wood murders.[5]
