Any Places To Park Up And Enjoy A View Of The City From Your Car?

P floor from the Hallamshire, but you'd probably struggle to park up there!

The very best views of the city are from Hathersage Road , Ringinglow Road and the top of East Bank Road.

 

In better times, the beer garden at the Brothers Arms has a great city view too.

Top of Meersbrook park near Bishops house has a good view across the city and only a short walk from the road

And more to the point, how on earth would you park a car up there?

Herdings Park bus terminus.

Fulwood Lane just before Andwell Lane is a nice view and it has a viewing point map:

You can probably park on the verge for 5 mins before people start getting annoyed!

I love the views from that viewing platform.  You can see Lincoln Cathedral on a clear day.  The platform  shows you where to look for certain landmarks.

Not sure what the situation is now but certainly one could in the past but yes do appreciate the point that they would have to get out of their car

Meersbrook Park, though you will have to park near the park and then walk up a moderate incline in the pack, about 20 mins, to enjoy the very best and highest view across to the city centre, but its worth it (some park benches are available).

Or park at Bishop's House entrance and a one minute walk through the gate.
