Have never seen worse park in my live!!! Sheffield Council dose not care about anything vary sad! In Nottingham every single park you have Gym excersising equipment plus lots of swings and more .. every single park is clean! Has flowers! Sheffield parks??? Rubbish everywhere and if there are 2 swings that's max why more? Lol ow and 1 small slide 🀣 and why Rubbish everywhere??? As they collect black bin 1 every 3 weeks unfortunately makes people's littering leaving there Rubbish on the streets in parks next to buss stops or in the public area bushes and so on. Its a big shame as the park has potential there is a big field they could extend and make a beautiful park but why? They don't care!

It's a council estate field. Sometimes it's got a burnt out car, sometimes the bakiers have ruined it but as a rule it is a great field with a great view of the city. Big old hill for pelting the ball down for the dog.

Sparse but better than nothing. Very open so catches the breeze even when it's warm.
