The Den
The Den is the main park in Kirriemuir with the Gairie Burn running through it. At one end it has more trees with a waterfall & the Cuttle Well. The central section has a play park and bandstand and the area closest to the Town Centre has grassy slopes with the Glengate on the north side and Denfield Court / Knowehead Crescent on the south.
