Green Spaces

ACSR is fortunate that our base (APAFC’s Pavilion) overlooks Auchterarder Public (Primrose) Park - a fantastic greenspace for people to enjoy. This park and the other greenspaces within the town are the focus of our Parks & Community Greenspaces group, as we aim to enhance the town’s greenspaces to help Auchterarder become the most active small town in Scotland!
