One of Ipswich's most popular parks has been closed to the public without warning or explanation. Ipswich Borough Council announced the closure of Holywells Park on Thursday morning.
Why it matters: The sudden closure of this public space affects local residents who use the park for recreation, exercise, and as a route through the area.
The big picture: The council has given no timeline for when the park might reopen, saying only it will remain closed "until further notice."
No explanation has been provided for the unexpected closure.
The park is a key green space in Ipswich, popular with families and dog walkers.
What's next: Ipswich Borough Council has been approached for comment about the reasons behind the closure. Further updates are expected as more information becomes available.
