Exciting improvements are on the horizon for Rowley Park and we are asking park users and local people to help shape the future of this much-loved green space.
We are looking at the first phase of a major refurbishment - which already boasts great facilities including a running track, artificial football pitch, tennis courts, bowling green and a children’s play area.
The consultation closes on Sunday 20 July 2025.
The vision
We’re working on a Masterplan to enhance Rowley Park Sports Stadium and create a welcoming, inclusive and exciting space for everyone in the community.
The goal? To develop a destination play space suitable for all ages, alongside improved areas for sport, leisure, and outdoor events.
The first phase of the revamp could include:
- New play equipment for toddlers and juniors
- An upgraded multi-use games area (MUGA)
- A new wheeled sports facility - perfect for skateboards, scooters and BMX
- Walking trails and picnic areas for relaxed days out
- A potential Ninja Warrior or Parkour trail - ideal for adventurous kids and teens looking to test their strength and agility
We’re also working closely with local schools and park users to ensure all upgrades are inclusive and accessible, so that everyone can enjoy what the park has to offer.
Why your view matters
This is a long-term, multi-phase project, and we want to make sure we’re investing in the things that matter most to the people who use the park every day.
That’s why we need your views - whether you’re a parent, grandparent, young person, sports enthusiast or someone who just enjoys a quiet walk in the park.
What happens next
Once we’ve gathered your feedback, we’ll use it to create detailed design proposals and will share them with the community for further input before any final decisions are made.
We’ll keep you updated as the project progresses.
Let’s work together to create a park that’s fun, inclusive and future-ready. Your ideas will help make Rowley Park an even better place for everyone to enjoy!
