Mirfield Parks and Play Areas

Kirklees Council has funding to improve a number of the Play Areas and Parks within the Mirfield Ward. We are currently working on implementing a new design for the Upper Hopton Recreation ground, which was selected in conjunction with the ward councillors and our next step is to find out which Play Area/Park we should focus on next. Information on the Upper Hopton Project.

We have carried out a Mirfield-wide consultation are initially trying to establish what the local communities' needs are so we can prioritise the funding and pull together a rolling programme for the Mirfield Ward. We will then look to engage consult the community on each individual project, so each Park/Play Area meets the requirements of the community it serves.

Please keep an eye out for future communication as we would be grateful for your feedback on the Parks and Play Areas in Mirfield to ensure these improvements meet the needs of the local community. The priorities and proposals for Parks and Play in Mirfield are currently in the early stages of development and can be adjusted to accommodate your suggestions and/or concerns where practicable.
