Happy Christmas Eve! We hope you all have a wonderful day, filled with friends, family & festivities.

We’ve always had a soft spot for Stannington Park, & we highly recommend a visit!

Happy Christmas eve eve folks!

We love all our city's green spaces, but Whinfell Quarry Gardens probably edges ahead as a favourite! It's got some serious Jurassic Park vibes, and we're both shameless fans so it was always going to be a hit!

Happy Winter Solstice! ❄️

Today's park is the mighty Graves Park! Gifted to the people of Sheffield by JG Graves. Jennis favourite thing about it is the evidence of medieval ridge and furrow farming methods near the cricket pavilion!

It’s already the 20th!! Time flies when you’re busy park hunting 😂

Here we are at Rivelin Valley in the sunshine.

Did you know, a three-mile stretch of the lower Rivelin valley had 20 watermills and 21 mill dams, working from the 16th to 20th centuries!

Today's park is one with a view! South Street Park is located above the train station and with its impressive amphitheatre it is a very prominent landmark above the city.

Today we're off to Abbeyfield park!

The park was formed following the 1909 sale of the house and land by Colliery owner William Pass to Sheffield Corporation for a whopping £10,500 (£850k in today's money!)

With just 9 days to go, here we are at Longley Park!

We’d love to know if anyone knows any facts about the history of this park?

Firth Park! ☀️

Did you know, Mark Firth, a steel manufacturer and former Lord Mayor of Sheffield, gifted the park to the city in 1875. It was the city’s first publicly owned park!

Can anyone take a guess at where tomorrow will be!?

Today's Christmas countdown is Frecheville Pond!

A popular fishing spot, the pond was originally a reservoir and became a pond when the Frecheville estate. The pond is home to carp, roach and perch and visited by waterfowl, including the odd heron.

To mark the festive half-way point, we thought we’d revisit one of our favourite of the Sheffield parks. 💫🌳🎄

It was a slightly colder experience, but Lola the dog didn’t seem to mind!

It’s the 11th of December! And as we wait for Santa to come, we’re counting down by revisiting some of our park visits!

Today lets celebrate Glen Howe Park! Offering an amazing walk with views, paths, history and bridges covered by moss. A tranquil and peaceful place! 🌳

Here we are at day 10! 🙌

Millhouses Park is loved by the people of Sheffield and has great sentimental value, it is not only used for all sorts of activities including outdoor events, but it has a lot of history along and the River Sheaf running through it.
