Logan's Meadow is a small site located next to the River Cam and is an oasis for nature within a recently developed area of the city. The site is a great place to get away from it all in the heart of the city with a circular path and benches along the banks of the river. Previously used by Otters, the proposed management objectives will help re-create their favoured habitat. Furthermore management of the trees through pollarding will help encourage a greater diversity of insects and birds.

Logan's Meadow was declared as a Local Nature Reserve on the 18 th April 2005.
