About Abbey Road Park
Abbey Road Park is a free neighbourhood park on Abbey Road in Abbey Hulton, in the east of Stoke-on-Trent, managed by Stoke-on-Trent City Council. It is one of the city's local neighbourhood parks, described by the council as having good play facilities for both teenagers and younger children. The site combines children's play equipment with a multi-use games area, giving older children and teenagers a hard-surfaced space for ball sports alongside the play area, plus open grass for informal games. This mix makes it a practical everyday park for families and young people living in the surrounding Abbey Hulton streets. In keeping with the council's smaller neighbourhood sites, it does not have on-site toilets or a dedicated car park, so it is best suited to visitors arriving on foot. Dogs are welcome in the open grounds, off lead unless a council officer directs otherwise, but they are not allowed inside the children's play area. Entry is free and the park is open and accessible throughout the day. Abbey Hulton also has wider green space and the Wallace Centre nearby, but Abbey Road Park remains the go-to local play spot for the immediate neighbourhood.
