About Higher Memorial Park

Higher Memorial Park is on Joseph Street in Failsworth and is managed by Oldham Council. It is one of Failsworth's war memorial parks and sits in the higher part of the township, serving the surrounding streets as a practical, do-a-bit-of-everything green space. For families, the park has a playground together with a natural play area, giving younger children both conventional equipment and more informal, nature-based play. Sporting facilities are straightforward and well used, comprising a five-a-side football area, tennis provision and a bowling green, which make the park a focus for local recreation across the generations. Toilets are available when the gardeners are on site. Entry to the park is free and it is open to the public. As a neighbourhood memorial park, Higher Memorial Park complements the nearby Lower Memorial Park, with the two together giving Failsworth a strong pair of community parks offering play, sport and open space within easy reach of homes in the south-west of the Oldham borough.
