About Hopwood Park
Hopwood Park is a compact local park in the Hopwood area of Heywood, in the Rochdale borough, holding a Green Flag Award. At around two hectares it is small, but it is crammed with facilities and features you would normally expect only in a much larger park, making it a well used neighbourhood green space. For families there is a separate play area for tots and toddlers alongside an adventure playground for more confident children, complete with a zip-wire, plus a modern play area. Active play continues with a multi-use games area, a pump track and a small skate facility, giving older children and teenagers plenty to do. The park also has a crown green bowling green with its pavilion. Away from the play equipment, the grounds include flower beds, a wildflower meadow, a mini orchard and a wildlife pond, with paths to walk or cycle around taking in the floral and natural features. The combination of play, sport and nature in a small footprint makes Hopwood Park a popular family destination for the surrounding community. The park is free to enter.
