Your veiws on longley park

Recommended Posts

took kids to longley playground other day and it was empty for a sunny day and there was nothing left just bars and no swings roundabout climbing frame, just a slide, and this had been peed down.

so off we went to endcliffe were there was about 2000 people a good clean park with everything in it.

just thought to myself that people just dont complain about things in longley.so i called the parks services and was given a positive response that things were at hand.

i would encourage a mass of phone calls to park services from anyone who can be bothered to make a difference and hopefull get some action taken to improve ths park

The vast majority of the money was used to re surface the car park

Longley Park is nowt but a great big doggie toilet these days and has been in decline for over 20 years now . There's nothing there to encourage families to visit anymore ...which is a great shame when you think back to the days of the swimming pool , tennis courts, football pitches, cricket pitch , the small golf course, playground and even the little shop/cafe next to the bowling greens .

You'll be hard pressed to even find any flowers in there now (perhaps because of all the doggie pee :roll )

Longley park is the pits! I live very close to it but i never take my children there as the playground is awful. I take them to hillsborough/graves/endcliffe park! Much more to do at each of these parks and the playgrounds are much more superior!
