Originally part of the historic grounds of Pope's Manor where the 18th century poet Alexander Pope spent part of his childhood, the park is managed to preserve its historic landscape features and is also a haven for a wide diversity of wildlife; it is designated as a local Wildlife Heritage Site.

Many activities take place at Pope's Meadow site, ranging from events such as Easter Egg Hunts and pond-dipping, to conservation volunteering including clearance works and wildflower planting, led by Rangers from the Parks and Countryside Service.

The children's play area is suitable for toddlers and a junior football pitch is available for public use. More recent popular additions include a circular disabled access path, benches and picnic tables. An interpretation board to help visitors find their way around the site and to provide information on its history and wildlife was installed in early 2006.
