Crow Nest Park

A multi Green Flag award winning park located in the Dewsbury Moor area approximately one mile from Dewsbury town centre, Crow Nest Park is one of the largest parks in North Kirklees. It is set on a sunny south facing hillside with outstanding views over the surrounding towns and countryside and contains a number of major attractions including an adventure playground, formal lawns, greenhouse with fernery, sports facilities, walled wildflower garden and an ornamental lake.

Designed to bring a feel of the countryside into what was, at the time, a very industrial area, with most of the town's residents employed in the many nearby textile mills. The park has remained ever popular with visitors and has recently seen something of a renaissance with tree planting and pathway works, as well as the Adventure Playground and refurbished greenhouse.

The Park is suitable for a variety of events and has hosted large scale events such as Concerts in the Park, A World Together and Olympic Flame events as well as smaller vintage car and flower shows. The Park has an active Friend group.
