About Brantwood Park
Brantwood Park is a long-established recreation ground on the south side of the Dallow area of Luton, free to enter. The land was originally an open field bought by the town council in 1894 to create a recreation ground for local people, and it has served the community ever since. The park is laid out around a large grass area used for informal activities and games, framed by mature trees and quiet corners for rest and reflection. For families there is a children's play area, while older children and teenagers have their own space including a basketball area. Paths run around the park, with seating dotted throughout for carers and visitors, and there are public toilets on site. Like all of Luton's council-managed playgrounds, Brantwood Park's play area is part of a borough-wide improvement programme investing in refurbished play equipment. Set within a residential neighbourhood, Brantwood Park is a handy, welcoming local green space that gives children somewhere to play and families room to relax close to home.
