General park information

Report a problem in a park

Parks are open from 8am, Monday to Saturday, and from 8:30am on Sundays and bank holidays. Parks will be closed at sunset every evening. Toilets close 1 hour before the park. Gates will be locked at closing time.

For more information, see park opening and closing times.

Parks with outdoor gyms

Byelaws

There are local park byelaws to prevent antisocial behaviour. We also have dog control orders which provide guidance on bringing your dog to the park. Owners can receive an £80 fixed penalty notice if they do not follow these rules. It is also illegal to have a barbecue in a park or open space. Police and community officers enforce these byelaws.
