VICTORIA PARK

GREEN HOLMFIRTH

Time for a little breathing space.

Victoria Park brings greenery, views and room to explore right into the heart of your Holmfirth trail.

Take a break, let the younger explorers burn off some energy or simply stop and enjoy being outdoors for a while.

Three things to do

1. Explore the park – Have a wander and enjoy a greener side of Holmfirth.

2. Stop at Coopers Yard – Take a look around another of the town’s characterful corners.

3. Make it an ice cream stop – A trip to Holmfirth is always improved by an ice cream — and local favourite Dixons is part of the town’s story too.

Green Holmfirth

The park is also a place for community activities, nature and events throughout the year.

The park offers views across Holmfirth and represents the Victorian belief in providing green spaces, recreation and cultural activities for growing industrial communities. 

The land was purchased by Holmfirth Town Council from local schoolteacher John Burton to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897. 

Make it yours

Take five minutes and do absolutely nothing. No shopping. No walking. No itinerary. Just Holmfirth.
