Description
Christ's Pieces is situated in the centre of Cambridge City, and is of typical Victorian Park design with tree lined avenues.

Christ's Pieces formal seasonal bedding displays planted in the 'petal beds' provide all year round colour.  There are also large ornamental shrub beds around the perimeter to add further year round colour and interest.

Previously owned by Jesus College, Christ's Pieces was sold on the understanding that it was aquired 'for the purpose of a public garden or recreation gorund and for no other reason whatsoever'.  

Today you can go walking, jogging, running and cycling in the park; or play football, cricket, tennis and bowls, or play in the play area.

Christ's Pieces bowling green is host to the City of Cambridge Bowling Club.   There are four free tennis courts.
