Apex Wildlife and Leisure Park was once an area of clay digging. Several pits were excavated, initially by hand and later by machine. The area which is now the car park was the brickworks where the clay was made into various items such as bricks, roof tiles and pipes. More information is available from the historical interpretation boards on-site. In 2021 Apex Wildlife and Leisure Park was once again awarded the Green Flag. Green Flag Awards recognise well-managed, high-quality green spaces.
