About Brookfield Recreation Ground
Brookfield Recreation Ground is a local park near Calverley and Rodley, to the north of Farsley in the west of the Leeds district, managed by Leeds City Council. It is a family-friendly recreation ground that works well for a straightforward outing with younger and primary-aged children. The playground is aimed at the three-to-twelve age range, with a zip wire and climbing frame for older children and small slides, swings and a roundabout for little ones, so siblings of different ages can play alongside each other. The site has a nine-a-side junior football pitch for younger teams, and grass pathways zig-zag around the green space, making it pleasant for a gentle walk or a run-around; the same paths suit dog walkers, and waste bins are provided. Picnic benches give families somewhere to sit and eat. The park benefits from a decent on-site car park with around 45 spaces, including disabled bays, which makes it easy to reach by car, and there is wheelchair and pushchair access throughout. The park is open from dawn to dusk, with no floodlights. There are no toilets or a cafe on site, but the Calverley Arms pub is about five minutes' walk away, and there are cafes and restaurants on nearby Rodley Lane.
