Playground

📍 Harehills, Yorkshire

★4.2(132 Google reviews)💰Free👶All ages

Free outdoor playground in Harehills featuring swings, slides, roundabouts, and see-saws across a spacious layout. Lacks accessible equipment — families with disabled children will need two adults to assist on most apparatus.

✓ Spacious layout✓ Free entry✓ Needs renovation✓ Classic equipment

🏆 Funzaroo Verdict

Best for mobile children who can use standard playground apparatus independently. The spacious layout suits families wanting room to spread out. Families with disabled children will find most equipment inaccessible without two adults present — a single parent with multiple children will struggle.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Bring two adults if visiting with a disabled child — most equipment requires assistance to use
⏰Only baby swings available — no full-size swings for older children
🎟️The open layout offers good spacing between equipment for active play
🚗Check equipment condition on arrival as some reviewers report neglect over the years

“Used to be on this park EVERY DAY when I was a young 'un. Playground back in the 60's & 70's was in a different place to where it is now. It had a high 'Big Slide' with a safety top to stop people falling off as it was quite high up. Used to slide down with a candle behind me, making it like a Toboggan run (very fast slide). Those were the days. Unfortunately because of selfish Vandals (some of who I knew personally!!), the play area was emptied and a new area built near the bottom of the park where there was a Bowling Green and Tennis courts. Happy days and weekends we had though. I cut through the park every day to get to Compton road and pass an old square stone which myself and a friend (George Lawrencine) used as Cricket Stumps. George is a Doctor now, so I don't get to see him anymore. Sad really. Lots of happy memories I have of Harehills Park. Kev Vickers. 👁️👁️👁️😄😄😄”

Overview

This Harehills playground offers traditional equipment in a spacious setting — swings, slides, roundabouts, and see-saws with room to spread out. Free entry and open access make it a convenient local spot. Accessible equipment is absent: the roundabout and see-saw require two adults to assist a disabled child, and only baby swings are available. Reviewers have called for a full renovation given years of reported neglect.
