Great Horton Park – Beautiful but Needs Better Maintenance Great Horton Park is a lovely space with lots to offer—ideal for walking, relaxing, or spending time with family. The greenery is refreshing, and the open space is great for all kinds of outdoor activities. However, there was noticeable litter scattered around, like empty bottles and wrappers, which took away from the experience. The pond, while a nice feature, was unfortunately dirty and had a strong smell, with even a couple of shopping carts thrown in. It’s a great park overall, but definitely in need of some upkeep and care.
I do park runs in this park. The path is a little hilly, which makes the run challenging. The park environment is a lovely place for a walk with kids or dogs, have a picnic or sit and relax and enjoy the park. They have a basketball court here, its not the best but it there. They upgraded the playground, putting a sand play area that's very nice. There is a beautiful garden as well. It's peaceful here.
Beautiful park, a bit shady at night so should put some lamp and light
Horton Park is a public park in Bradford, England, located to the west of the city in Great Horton. It was opened on 25 May 1878 on land purchased by Bradford Council in 1873. The park was designed by William Gay landscape gardener and surveyor. The park provides bowling greens, and a children's play area, as well as floral decorations. Bradford Council retain ownership of the park but, the park is primarily looked after by Glendale on contract. The bowling greens are open to the public from April to September each year. Vehicular access to the park is by permit only.
Haven't been here for around here for at least 15 years. Place has changed a lot for the better. Plenty to do for the kids. Even exercise equipment, lol. Dogs absolutely love this place and don't wanna leave most times.
