About Hare Hill Park
Hare Hill Park is a traditional Victorian park in the heart of Littleborough, retaining many original features alongside a wide range of modern leisure facilities, and is home to Littleborough Library within the park grounds. It is managed by Rochdale Borough Council and holds a Green Flag Award. The park is particularly strong for families, with fixed play areas catering to different ages: a toddlers' play area, junior and adventure play provision, and a dedicated skateboard park for older children and teenagers. Accessibility has been considered in the play provision, with a wheelchair-accessible roundabout in the toddler/junior area and an accessible bucket swing seat. Beyond the play areas the park offers formal gardens, bowling greens and a bandstand, giving it a classic municipal park character. Good flat or gently graded tarmac paths run through the grounds, although a cobbled road through part of the park may be trickier for some wheelchair users. There is a free onsite car park, including an accessible bay by the pavilion building, and accessible toilets are available at Littleborough Library during its opening hours. Guide dogs are welcome. The park is free to enter.
