A leading place of interest in the area is the Inkerman playing fields, formerly a Victorian swimming baths and a former area of pottery, most notably Bramptonware.
Other places of interest include the Woodside public house, which enjoys a prime location at the top of Ashgate hill. There is a wood that runs on from this roundabout, leading to the small but quaint village of Old Brampton, and prior to that, Ashgate Hospice, which has recently added a new daycare suite to its growing expertise in palliative care. The Ashgate area is surrounded by the other districts of Brockwell, Loundsley Green, Brampton, Old Brampton and the town centre itself.
