Description

We are an organisation dedicated to the promotion and enjoyment of live brass band music in Andover and the surrounding area.

We are a family of bands catering for all ages and abilities, and perform at a wide range of concerts and events throughout the year.

Consisting of the most experienced players within the group, the Senior Band performs at a wide range of engagements from formal concerts, to flower shows, summer fetes, parades, birthday parties and Christmas caroling.

Description

As well as a bandstand you will find a boating lake, tree trail, trim trail, children’s play area and a paddling pool in Eastrop Park.

The park has been awarded the Green Flag Award for 2017 to 2018.

The River Loddon runs through the park, feeding into a balancing pond in the wildlife area. You can watch wildlife from the dipping platform: on, below and beside the water (caution is recommended in wet conditions). Many birds inhabit this area including a kingfisher which can be seen hunting along the river.
