Knowl Park
About the site
The play area at Knowl Park is situated in the heart of the town of Mirfield. It is located on the open greenspace in between Knowl Road and Crowlees Road within the Mirfield Ward of Kirklees.
Outdoor play significantly contributes to a child's physical, social, and cognitive development. However, it is not just for children and young people; it should be encouraged throughout life, offering numerous benefits to individuals and communities alike.
Our goal is to enhance and expand the play facilities at this site, making them accessible to a variety of ages and abilities.
