weather

Apart from the warmth and comfort of the Visitor Centre, the National Memorial Arboretum is an outdoor site, so it is advisable to check that you are appropriately dressed for the local weather. BBC weather link

The Arboretum is a large open air site with limited undercover activities during inclement weather. Please ensure members of your group come prepared with waterproof protection if wet weather is forecast, and warm clothing in winter months. Appropriate footwear is recommended at all times. Our gift shop sells umbrellas, wet weather garments and sunhats.
