The cafe at a popular country park in Derbyshire has been forced to close today after a water pipe burst – with the team waiting to confirm when the venue can reopen.

The cafe and toilets in the visitor centre at Shipley Country Park have been closed today (Tuesday, June 9) – with the disruption being caused by a burst water pipe.

A spokesperson said: “Unfortunately, we have had to close the toilets and the cafe at the visitor centre today due to a burst water pipe.

“The building currently has no running water, we are waiting for an update from Severn Trent Water and will update once we can reopen.

“If you are visiting the site today, alternative toilets can still be used at Mapperley Car Park and Derby Lodge. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
