Town Park, Runcorn


Town Park is a large urban park in Runcorn, Cheshire, England.
Town Park was created as an integral part of the original Runcorn New Town development with the aim of forming a central landscape feature for local residents. The creation of Town Park preserved nearly 157 hectares of existing woodlands and undulating grassland. The park was planned to link the New Town centre with local centres via green corridors and included large areas of open grassland and woodland as well as buildings for recreational and cultural activities.
Halton Miniature Railway, Runcorn Ski Slope and Norton Priory Museum and Gardens sit within the park boundaries.
