The site consists of pockets of native trees with areas of open grass.  There is a variety of wild flowers and hedgerows of mixed native species, which provide good habitat for birds and mammals. Limited maintenance is carried out on the site in order to ensure natural features and habitats are retained. This is supplemented by work teams from the Burnside Centre for adults with learning difficulties as part of their community integration programme.

West Park reserve is owned and maintained by Burgess Hill Town Council.  For further information contact 01444 247726 or helppoint@burgesshill.gov.uk. The Town Council is currently developing a community project at the site in conjunction with local residents and conservation groups.
