A nice park for dog walking, however it’s starting to look run down, sadly like many places in Kirklees. The railings have been crudely removed and weeds are overgrowing the memorial park, buildings looking dilapidated. It’s a shame to see it go this way

Ravensknowle Park is approx 12 acres (5 ha) of parkland, forming the grounds of Tolson Museum. The park may be small-ish, but it's lovely to wander round, and is well-maintained. It's popular with families with young children. It's home to the striking Cloth Hall Shelter, this being the entrance and clock tower from the old Cloth Hall, moved here from Huddersfield town centre after the Cloth Hall was demolished in 1929/30. There is ample free parking on site. The museum serves refreshments, with outside seating. The Tolson Museum is also worth a visit; entry is free.

Welcome to Huddersfield. This is a lovely park with beautiful garden, green field, and playground next to Tolson Museum. If this place is managed even better, it may attract people to come enjoying the facilities provided. This place is perfect and nice on spring or summer to enjoy the sun.

It’s got an okay little kids playground, it’s shame it hasn’t got more too it. Free parking, and the museum is good but it’s only open a few hours a week.
