About Parc y Werin
Parc y Werin is the main community park serving Gorseinon in the west of the City and County of Swansea, on Princess Street in the heart of the town. It is a traditional recreation park that brings together a children's play area with wider sports provision, including bowling greens and football pitches, giving families and clubs a shared green space close to the town centre. The play area offers equipment such as swings, a slide and a multiplay climbing unit for younger visitors, while the open pitches and greens host regular community sport. Gorseinon has benefited from several of Swansea Council's play-area upgrade schemes in recent years, with nearby sites such as Parc Melin Mynach and Gower View also seeing significant new equipment, so the town is well served for families. Parc y Werin's central location makes it an easy stop for local residents and those visiting Gorseinon's shops and amenities. Entry is free and the park is open to the public all year round.
